What was the most important thing you learned or gained today?

That all the pieces are necessary
The importance of taking time for myself and the reminder about how that impacts overall health and well-being
Kudos to Lisa for stepping up and doing a presentation in her first month of a new job!
Learning how performance Management fits into Strategic Planning
Concrete ideas regarding how to start a formal performance management
Self-care, food suggestions, decrease stress, perspectives in life
Lisa did a great job tying information together—being new to the administrative world, this presentation and the discussions were very helpful!
Jen—wonderful presentation. Great advice and good reminders to be joyful
Information about how to move my department further; planning
That I’m not alone with my stress and to allow myself to be bored without guilt
Take time to be bored—that is when creativity and personal growth occurs
It may have been interjected by a participant but the message was to help staff understand accountability—by saying “we need money to have this program, so do what you need to do to fill these patient spots so you can have a paycheck!”
Also like the communication plan and would like the form shared so I can bring it back to our office—“what are we sharing at a meeting? How are we sharing what we learned at the meeting?”

Suggestions for improvement:

Both sessions were excellent and great timing for my needs
None
Unsure
None—Lisa did a great job, allowed interaction from group and time to share ideas; Lisa had good examples
Both presentations were thought provoking

Ideas for future educational sessions:

Developing a strategic plan—how to’s
How to start a community collaborative and why
Jenny again! Love her
I’ll let you know when I think of something
Unsure
Juggling public health departments with shrinking staff. What to let go of? How to know if you need to let go of a program? How to motivate staff who already feel over-worked
