Session Descriptions General Sessions Real Colors The Real Colors Personality Instrument is presented in a fast, fun, interactive format where participants can learn how to quickly identify their own temperament or "color" and that of others. Using this powerful knowledge, they can develop more effective communication skills and build better relationships, in and out of the workplace. Fact is, everyone has a distinct temperament spectrum comprised of four colors: Blue, Gold, Orange and Green. Learn to identify a person's Real Colors and you'll gain insight into the things that are most important to them, discover the secret of what motivates them, and much more. Real Colors is easy to use at work, at home, anywhere you meet people! Mission Health has nationally-certified staff available to administer the assessment, and facilitate application with your team. Participants will discover their personal strengths; learn to recognize the strengths of others; learn how to build instant rapport with people; learn the most effective methods of speaking to different people; learn to hear what people are really saying; discover the different ways individuals process information; learn to appreciate and value the viewpoints of others; and learn how to apply Real Colors principles in all areas of their lives. Population Health & Accountable Care Organizations Healthcare delivery is changing at an unprecedented pace due in part to the fact that as a country we are spending greater than 17% of our GDP on healthcare with outcomes that are far below many other industrialized nations. In response, providers, hospitals and other healthcare organizations are being asked to rethink how we structure our systems and ultimately deliver our care. We are moving from a volume based model to one that focuses on value- the best outcomes for the best cost. This requires a change in technology, data sharing and most importantly culture to fully identify, understand and engage with the populations we serve. In this session, we will review the basics of population health and how that translates into one new model of care, accountable care organizations. We will also discuss how Mission Health Partners is building a population health strategy locally and how it will affect the providers and residents of Western North Carolina. The Landscape of Wellness in Your Organization Join Dede Rowe, WellConnect Engagement Specialist, to explore the creation of a culture of wellness within your organization. Learn about the MyHealthyLife WellConnect Wellness Program offered through Mission Hospital and its great impact on engaging employees, employers, and the community of WNC. Dede will share successes from the program and give an overview of how you can engage your organization in a wellness initiative.
