Is it enough to design for a great patient experience, improved health outcomes, and overall cost reductions in health care? While incentives may soon change, the idea of data-driven solutions to improve health care is not a new one. Yet why have technological solutions so frequently fail on all three of the triple aims? We need to be able to ask deeper questions, and experiment with more humanistic approaches.
Looking at specific interaction examples from incumbents and startups in health tech, I will contrast the current approaches for data-driven solution development, and how they fall short at the moment of interaction. Incumbents deploy top down approaches that comply with regulation, and meet the needs of payers and providers, but famously fail to deliver engaging patient and practitioner experiences. New entrants want to disrupt the entire system, but often struggle to understand deep unmet patient needs, and how to demonstrate evidence-based outcomes.
For each solution born onto the health tech scene, can we ask: Are patient’s lives enhanced by the addition of data? Do doctors become more wise? Do nurses feel more empowered? Do spouses know how to effectively intervene? Do adult children of aging parents get more time in their overly stretched days? And do these collective interactions actually result in improved population health?
This talk will outline an approach to design for a higher aim and enhance the lives of everyone who seeks care from the health care system.

When an organization takes on technical debt unknowingly we call it Dark Debt. While we’ve gotten good at identifying and managing technical debt, Dark Debt of the cultural variety is harder to see.
Is your IT organization’s culture impacted by:
Invisible and unplanned work
Late work or low quality work
Unclear priorities and wasted effort
If so, you’re likely dealing with unintended consequences of decisions that caused misalignment and a lack of visibility - two common causes of Dark Debt. Join us to learn how to recognize and avoid the causes of Dark Debt so you can start repairing the culture of your organization.

Ashwini Bakshi: Powering the Project Economy - and Building a Net Zero WorldPMIUKChapter
The United Nations recently released a report warning of catastrophe if the world doesn’t soon reverse course on carbon emissions, calling this moment a “Code Red for Humanity.” But it’s no small task to re-imagine how every facet of our society is powered – and it will take project managers and change makers to lead the transformation that our world urgently needs.
We will welcome Ashwini Bakshi, Regional Managing Director at PMI. Ashwini will share his unique insights on the world's increasingly disruptive shift toward projectization and new ways of working across all sectors and geographic regions. Ashwini will highlight the long-term global climate trends profoundly transforming the future of work itself.
These paradigm shifts are placing marked pressure on organizations and governments to ensure their relevance and operate with dramatically hyper-agile approaches. As a result, professionals around the world also need to upgrade their own capabilities and develop the right mix of technical and “power skills” to effectively lead teams and turn ideas into reality.
Join us as Ashwini shares engaging stories and actionable lessons on how organizations and individuals alike can prepare to take on the globe’s most urgent challenge.
There’s a massive difference between teams that rock and those that just don't. Not only do the teams that rock deliver some phenomenal, off-the-page results, they are a joy to work with and be part of. These teams act like magnets for more amazing people, deliver remarkable value for customers and inspire action in others.

Evidence-based Management with Agility Pathebitteker
Evidence-based management of software organizations systematically uses information about outcomes, organizational patterns and trends to maximize performance and enterprise value. See http://ebmgt.org for more detail.
Agility Path implements evidence-based management through expert consultants, data visualization and a framework for managing change. See agility-path.com for more detail.
Big data, evidence-based, predictive analytics, today these terms are all over the place. Is this just another fad or an irreversible trend? An increasing group of HR leaders relies on science, critical thinking and data analyses to make decisions.
Evidence-based HR, however, is still perceived by many as too time-consuming, narrow or impractical. Meanwhile, evidence-based practice is becoming mainstream in many other disciplines (like medicine). This is the momentum for pioneering HR leaders to seize the opportunity and make a difference with evidence. As part of an inclusive approach, valuing different perspectives.
We will enter into the dialogue about the why, the what, and most of all the how of evidence-based HR. How to get started and how to blend it with softer, less tangible HR practices? A pragmatic introduction, with realistic ambitions and openness towards other approaches.

What do next generation leaders say they need to be 'future ready'? This report is from 200+ next generation leaders attending the #AICPA_EDGE Conference in Las Vegas in August, 2016.
Next Gen leaders will be called to lead in a different environment than many leaders of the past. These times of exponential change will require a different skill set. They will be leading in transformational and adaptive times which require new skills and new practices.
This report highlights top challenges, top skills, insights from the session and more.
These polls were integrated during a presentation on "The Future Ready CPA" where we covered the 5 C's - Context, Certainty, Capacity, Competency, and Core Purpose & Values.
We are living in “exponential times” where the size, scale and scope of change is incredible. That means there are incredible opportunities for those who can see through the fog of uncertainty and anticipate what’s next. The biggest opportunity is to harness the wisdom of our older generations with the fresh perspectives of the tech-savvy younger generations. The next generation of leaders is enthusiastically ready to have a seat at the table. The future is not created; the future is co- created. Let’s get to work!
Organizations have invested years in shaping up the leadership behaviors and in building a culture of high performance and a committed workforce. All of this is at stake today, owing to the ongoing pandemic – one of the biggest health crises ever – Covid19, pushing every organization to think differently about their leader behaviors to build a resilient organization, and a thriving culture.

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.drhasanrajab
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
