While we can’t always walk in someone else’s shoes, we can take the time to inquire about how the shoe fits and if its path is smooth or riddled with pebbles.

Race, culture, age, heritage, experience, background, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity and personal history all affect the way in which we interact with one another and conduct business. Leveraging them for individual success and team results can mean the difference between average or extraordinary and surviving or thriving.

ACHENTX will be partnering with National Association of Health Service Executives (NAHSE); National Association of Latino Healthcare Executives (NAHLE) and its own special interest groups; Asian Healthcare Leaders Forum (AHLF); the ACHE LGBT Forum and our own newly forming Women’s Healthcare Executive Network (WHEN).

This is going to be a great evening of networking, education and idea exchange!

A special thanks to Corgan for hosting the event’s hors d’oeuvres and drinks – and CHRISTUS Health for providing the location!
