Speakers and Session Descriptions Not Business as Usual in the Post-COVID World: Critical Roles and Strategies for Governance & Executive Leadership Chip Caldwell, FACHE, Chairman and Alan Kent, DHA, FACHE, Managing Principal, Caldwell Butler & Associates

Hospitals and health systems throughout the country are under unprecedented pressures that have only been exacerbated by the effects of COVID-19. Recent research by the American College of Health Care Executives (ACHE) faculty in 2020 and 2021 revealed that hospitals of all sizes and complexity continue to struggle with performance issues in operations affecting quality and financial performance, including plummeting profitability and dependence on governmental stimulus funds; exhaustion of debt capacity and weakening balance sheets; and financial issues and distractions that reduce attention to issues of quality, reliability, and patient safety. Trustees and executives are finding that many senior and middle managers lack the fundamental skills of adaptive change management to ensure success. Research shows that high-performing organizations’ solutions to these issues include sound board and executive strategy and development of middle managers as change agents. Speaker bios Chip Caldwell, FACHE, is the chairman of Caldwell Bulter & Associates, an innovative firm specializing in research-based methods to provide BURST improvement in margin, throughput, and patient experience. His expertise includes the effective deployment of advanced methods to improve accountability, implementation, and speed of change by developing senior leaders and managers as adaptive change agents. Chip has served as faculty for the ACHE, providing C-suite research and education for the past 20 years. In addition, he is a well-published expert in applying methods such as Lean and Six Sigma to achieve CFO-validated improvement. Dr. Alan Kent is the managing principal with Caldwell Butler & Associates. He most recently served as president & CEO of Meadows Regional Medical Center. He holds a Bachelor of Science in health systems from the Georgia Institute of Technology, a Master of Health Administration from Georgia State University, and a Doctor of Health Administration from the Medical University of South Carolina. Alan has over 40 years of leadership experience in hospital executive and consulting roles that have included hospital turnaround operations, significant on time/under budget construction projects, operational improvement, and revenue growth. He is passionate about organizational leadership development for managers at all levels and building effective relationships with physicians and senior leaders. Board certified as a Fellow in the American College of Healthcare Executives, Alan is a faculty member of ACHE, an adjunct faculty member in the Jiann-Ping Hsu College of Public Health at Georgia Southern University, and a frequent lecturer at Georgia State University and the Medical University of South Carolina.


Combating Cyberthreats: Your Hospital, Your Staff, Yourself John Riggi, National Advisor for Cybersecurity and Risk American Hospital Association

John Riggi, national advisor for cybersecurity and risk at the American Hospital Association, is a nationally recognized health care cybersecurity expert and former FBI cyber senior executive. He has been on the forefront in helping providers prepare for, respond to, and recover from cyber attacks. John will provide a uniquely informed national perspective on the current cyber threat landscape, including the recent rash of ransomware attacks. He will also discuss the impact these cyber attacks have had on large systems and small hospitals, from lost data and revenue to reputational harm and impact on patient care delivery and patient safety. Speaker bio John Riggi, having spent nearly 30 years as a highly decorated veteran of the FBI, serves as the first national advisor for cybersecurity and risk for the American Hospital Association (AHA) and their 5000+ member hospitals. John leverages his distinctive experience at the FBI and CIA in the investigation and disruption of cyber threats, international organized crime, and terrorist organizations to assist on policy and advocacy issues and provide trusted advisory services for the nation’s hospitals and health systems. John initiated and co-led a national HHS/health care sector task group to develop resources to assist the field in managing cyber risk as an enterprise risk issue. He launched a national campaign with the AHA and government agencies to help members protect medical research against foreign threats. In various leadership roles at the FBI, John served as a representative to the White House Cyber Response Group and a senior representative to the CIA. He also led counterintelligence field surveillance programs in Washington, D.C. and financial crimes and terrorist financing squads in New York City.


Building a Workplace That Works: Recruiting and Retaining in Uncertain Times

Hannah Ubl, Communication and Culture Expert, Co-Founder of Good Company Consulting It’s no secret that the workforce is struggling. Struggling to stay motivated, to prioritize tasks and remain productive, and even struggling to find the energy just to show up. No industry quite understands that struggle more than health care. As organizations and leaders wrestle with how to find people to fill vacancies, they’re also wondering how to keep staff motivated and engaged when another surge might be waiting around the corner. This presentation offers a path forward by presenting concrete strategies that focus on two key elements during times of great change: going back to basics and putting people first. Speaker bios Hannah Ubl’s core mission is to create organizations that don’t suck. She’s devoted her career to flipping the traditional workplace script, throwing out the old “employees are lines on a spreadsheet” in favor of treating people at work more like, well, people. As co-founder of Good Company Consulting, she’s sought after for her bold take on building workplaces that prioritize the human experience while simultaneously increasing the bottom line. Hannah has dedicated the past decade to researching people at work – not just top talent and leadership – but everyone in between. She’s discovered a strangely well-kept secret for recruiting and retaining the workforce of the future: The best recipe for organizational success is rooted in mindfulness, empathy, and kindness. Hannah’s work is a fresh approach to the standard (and outdated) workplace narrative. Not afraid to ask the hard questions, she pushes audiences towards self-inquiry to help them become better leaders, better managers, and better colleagues. With heart, deep conviction, and a good dose of self-deprecating humor, Hannah will sweep you along on a journey of insights that lead to deep, lasting mindset shifts about how work works. A passionate speaker and consummate professional, she’s energized by her audiences and brings her full self to every presentation.

This session is open to all fully certified participants in the GHA and Georgia Southern Hospital Leadership Training Program who are at least one year past their installation date.

John S. Bowling Prayer Breakfast Brace for Impact: Mental Health Crisis

Lynn Garson

Join us at our annual John S. Bowling Prayer Breakfast, where you will hear Lynn Garson share her personal journey of recovery from major clinical depression. She will explain the self-care spectrum and why it’s critical for us all to know where we fall on it at any given time so we can respond accordingly. In addition, Ms. Garson will relay what she’s learned from the individual, employer and family perspective and will provide recommendations for wellness prevention in both the personal and professional settings. Speaker bio Lynn Garson practices health care law at BakerHostetler in the firm’s Atlanta office. Her areas of expertise include physician practice acquisitions, employment, independent contractor and related agreements. Lynn is also a mental health advocate and author. In July 2012, she published Southern Vapors, a memoir describing her journey from major clinical depression to recovery. She has since shared her story widely, including via a TEDx Emory talk: “Reforming the Approach to Mental Health in the U.S.” She has made numerous presentations to private and public organizations, including the American Bar Association, local bar associations, the American Health Lawyers Association, and a number of law schools.

You Just Have to Laugh

David Naster, Comedian

You Just Have to Laugh is the resiliency we need to get through life’s toughest and most turbulent times. The capacity to recover quickly from the difficulties, challenges and detours we are presently faced with is critical to leading a fulfilling and productive life. Who would ever think that could be done by using HUMOR? David Naster will not only prove it, but he’ll have you laughing the entire time. David’s philosophy is, “When we use our ability to think funny, we will bend and not break in the turbulent winds of change.” Speaker bio David Naster was a theater/psychology major in college. He soon realized he’d rather make fun of people instead of helping them. That’s what led to him becoming not just a comedian, but an internationally well-known comedian. Underneath all the laughs, David discovered that humor and laughter could heal the deepest emotional and physical pains. That led him back to his psychology roots, creating You Just Have to Laugh. This one-of-a kind brand and applicable philosophy inspires, encourages, and brings joy to millions of people. By using real examples of real life from real people, David Naster speaks to professional and private organizations worldwide. His philosophy is endorsed by renowned physicians Dr. Patch Adams and Dr. Bernie Siegel as well as Herb Kelleher (founder of Southwest Airlines).
