“Building a Community.
Physicians go where they are Welcomed…
Remain where they are Respected…
And grow where they are Nurtured.”
- Bill Leaver, CEO, Iowa Health System
Substitute the word physician with these words: nurses, security guard, housekeeping, receptionist, etc. Maybe even replace the word physician with MSL! This is the key to community regardless of working out of your car or on the phone. You and I can add to a community feeling (The German word is “gemeinschaftsgefuhl,” indicating a connectedness of well-being with others). On your KOL visits, you can bring that shining light of welcoming, respect, and nurturance to every practice and university you visit. When you do, they want you back and will remember you. And you will remember them as well.
