Health Industry Professionals speak about Jeff Davidson's programs on
Breathing SpaceŽ: Living and Working
at a Comfortable Pace in a Sped-Up Society
THANK YOU FOR A JOB WELL DONE! I thoroughly enjoyed your presentation
at Cool font. I applaud you for being a stimulating speaker: clear,
concise and to the point. Based on my experience at Coolfont and
watching our guests from metropolitan areas, I feel you are right on the
button in your assessment of what causes stress in our lives. I am glad
you enjoyed your visit to Coolfont, and I hope you will join us again.
Carolyn R. Thomas, M.S., Director, Spa and Fitness Programs
Coolfont Resort & Conference Center, Berkeley Springs, WV
I really want to thank you for your speech at the Midwest Section MGMA
meeting. You were very interesting, and I am trying to use your
recommendations, as some days it feels like all the walls are crashing
in.
Rodney F. Mitzel, Division Administrator, Dickinson Clinic, Dickinson,
ND
I very much enjoyed your presentation at the Carolinas Medical Center.
It was very helpful to know that I am probably still holding on to the
past, and there are ways I can resolve the problem. Also, I realize
that I do not immediately take care of papers that come across my desk
or mail I receive. I really appreciate the handouts we were given at
the workshop and have shared them with my co-workers.
Patty McDonald, Mecklenburg Area Mental Health Authority, Charlotte, NC
I recently had the pleasure of hearing you speak at a convention I was
attending. Your message regarding breathing space was right on the
money. I was so impressed, I purchased your book.
Dennis Yunk, Director of Finance, The Sheboygan Clinic, Sheboygan, WI
Today I attended your discussion: How to Handle Holiday Stress. It was
a delightful presentation. I particularly enjoyed the fact that your
talk was not too heavy; your sense of humor made it a delightful time.
Your voice is so well modulated that a mike was unnecessary, so you
could move around and through your questions and comments, made everyone
feel part of the presentation.
I felt that the questions, to which you gave such varied and
interesting answers, were a favorite part of the presentation. Thank
you for sharing your wonderful experiences and knowledge with us. It
was a pleasant break in our busy schedules, and a most worthwhile one!
Sister Annette McBennett, Mercy Hospital, Charlotte, NC
Thanks for a great presentation at our spring meeting. It was well
received and appreciated. I will prepare your "ten commandments" for
publication in our next newsletter since so many people were anxious for
a copy.
Ron Carter, President, Nebraska Medical Group Management, Norfolk, NE
Not only did I get a great deal of information from your course, but it
also gave me permission to use the stuff that I already knew but somehow
didn't know that I knew. But mostly what I want to thank you for is
your willingness to promote me from the front of the room. It was a
very, very nice thing to do. That kind of generosity, when coupled with
your hard work and ambition, will send you right to the top.
You have an enormous amount of experience and it's that experience
that makes you so valuable a lecturer. All audiences love to hear "How
I Did It" and it's just as useful to tell anecdotes whether it turned
out well or turned out badly; it provides that kind of personal touch
people yearn for. And somehow it makes their goals more attainable,
knowing that you, as successful as your are, also made goofs. I feel
privileged to have attended the presentation. Thanks again.
Harvey W. Austin, MD, Austin & Weston Medical Center, McLean, VA
I wanted to thank you for providing me with an excellent opportunity to
learn some effective ways to influence my career advancement. At the
HCAT seminar on Thursday, your presentation was refreshing and
uplifting, and gave me renewed enthusiasm to strive for more. I look
foward to implementing my chosen key components, and eventually all of
them.
By the way, exactly how much did that new wardrobe cost? Hope to see
you again in the near future.
Robert Leek, Administrative Director, Cardiopulmonary Serivces
Williamsburg Community Hospital, Williamsburg VA
Fantastic presentation to the HCAT members today! I've experienced many
sessions of this general type, but yours was truly unique. You covered
a surprising variety of issues with ease and made them relavent. The
day was most weel spent for me.
Thanks for a great session! You've helped me set some goals which
will bear fruit soon, especially in the writing arena.
Captain Charles Anderson, Department of the Navy, Officer in Charge
Naval School of Health Sciences, Portsmouth VA
(By fax, two weeks later:)
Again, a superb talk which has has already made a positive difference!
I thoroughly enjoyed your talk. I have already instituted some of the
ideas you suggested to reduce my input overload. As a full-time
Laboratory manager and full time student I often find myself swamped.
I'm ready to slow down. Thanks.
Linda Jenkins, Maryview Medical Center
Bon Secours Health System, Portsmouth VA
My responsibilities are increasing, which is exciting, but also a real
juggling act--
your program was most inspiring (and fun, too!) I enjoyed it immensely.
Hope G. Plank, Lynn Shores Manor, Virginia Beach, VA
After hearing one of the most informative and motivating lectures in my
lifetime, I wanted to briefly share some thoughts with you.... Your
seminar was enjoyable as well as helpful. Don't change a thing! I'm
sure there are many other careerists out there who would greatly benefit
from your wisdom, and I am confident that I speak for all those who
attended your seminar that we are more valuable to our organizations and
ourselves because of your knowledge.
Thanks again Jeff for such an enlightening and pleasant experience, and
I wish you well in all your future endeavors.
Roger S. Grayson, Sentara Health Systems, Virginia Beach, VA
Just a note to tell you how much I enjoyed your seminars on "50 ways to
leave your clutter" at the Illinois Health Care Convention a few weeks
ago. I attend a lot of seminars for my job, and it takes quite a lot to
"entertain" me these days--I pride myself in being a well organized
individual, but your talk gave me several new areas to look at.
Thanks for sending the recording in "Breathing Space." I have done
some training on organization, and I'm sure I'll enjoy your ideas.
Joyce Ely, Administrator, Country View Living Center, Latham, IL
Thank you again for taking part in the Illinois Health Care
Association's Annual Meeting in Peoria last week. I enjoyed your
session and have already tried to get rid of my clutter! Thanks again
for your efforts.
Julie Efaw, CMP, Executive Director
Capitol City Speakers Bureau, Springfield, IL
I thoroughly enjoyed hearing your presentation. I certainly admire your
ability to completely focus in any given task and no doubt this is a
significant factor in your success as a speaker and author.
Thank you for sharing your story and tips for personal/professional
development!
Carol Mills, RN, MA, Denver, CO
