This spring I had a couple of cases where people said “I wish I’d known you were coming – we could have had coffee!” (That’s always compelling to me…) So I’m going to try publishing a monthly update (more or less) of upcoming travels, newly added future events, and maybe a few other things. Short & sweet. Thank you to Casey Quinlan, a focused production machine if I ever saw one, for making this happen!
Underway now:
- June 7-13, Lucerne, Switzerland: IKF’s annual Swiss tour. Multiple keynotes and private meetings.
Upcoming travels & webcasts
- June 16-17, Chicago: NEHI’s National Healthcare Innovation Summit. Attending.
- June 17, London (via web): The King’s Fund, Digital Health Days Congress. Speaker.
- Link to come next week: June 26, 4:30 pm New York time, webcast: 20 minute speech “Being Heard as Possibility,” part of Rebel Jam, hosted by Rebels At Work, Corporate Rebels United and Change Agent Worldwide.
- I love this group! I first learned about them from Helen Bevan in 2013 and blogged about this movement on Forbes: The “Organizational Radical” Movement Comes To Medicine
- June 29, London:
- Private corporate event

Recently added events (stay tuned for details!)

Congratulations for your first paper as first author in venerable ASCO’s Journal of Oncology Practice!!
Kathi, you are always so encouraging – thank you for your early and continuing support, ever since we met in 2010!
So inspiring!! Thanks for sharing. I feel like I am making progress so slow . . . it’s almost painful. I am working away. LOL!
