The successful home health operator from Illinois remarked, βThe β7 secretsβ presentation about how βculture eats strategy for breakfastβ and how we can view our companies in a tribal, organic way was refreshing. I have not heard such an original presentation anywhere! I thought it was a great way to wrap up the seminar which presented very relevant and applicable content. I am planning to attend the Chicago event in June, and encourage our staff to attend as well.β
