Day 1:
No Barriers Leadership – What does it take to lead a team of people. The lessons learned in recruiting people for a solo sailor when we really have a sailing team behind the sailor, and how does this transfer to senior living and healthcare leadership.

Day 2:
Leadership in an Alternative World – What can we learn from other cultures? We will discuss resident and patient rights in this new age of alternative medicine and self determination and choice; the alternatives and how they are impacted by regulations. We will discuss traditional best practices in the US healthcare system as compared to traditional practices of other cultures. We will spend time discussing medical tourism and specifically Ayurvedic Healing and other similar alternative cultural approaches.

Day 3:
Leadership and Problem Solving – Earnest Shackleton gathered a great team of explorers to follow him to Antarctica, till they lost their vessel and had to survive on the ice. The changes that have occurred in senior living and healthcare are forcing leaders to look at health care in innovative ways. What mechanisms are required today to find solutions to your barriers? What is failure and how do you respond to achieve success.

Day 4:
Leadership and Developing Relationships for Creating a Legacy – this is an event that involves personal discovery. We work together, play together and live together. How does one balance their profession and nurture and support a variety of relationships, personal and professional. What are the dynamics of successful relationships and at the end of the day, what is our legacy? How do we want to be ultimately remembered and what are the steps we are taking today in order to live into and create our legacy?

Day 5:
Leadership and Diversity – Growing up in Apartheid South Africa forced Neal to develop new ways of thought. Today’s work force is ever changing and a new vision is needed in bringing workers of various backgrounds together for a common cause. But it is not just dealing with a diverse work force, but the resident and patient base will be changing in time, as well. This will demand cultural sensitivity as our world becomes more inter-related.
