Professional coaching can help identify and unblock barriers that have the potential to harm individuals or organizations. A great coach will define a process to meet the dynamic needs of an organization or department, and enable individuals to determine, pursue, and accomplish their professional goals.
Professional coaching will be a needed and necessary resource to help the pathology industry cope with their digital future; and Digital Pathology Consultants will be there to help. If you would like to learn more download my webinar or send me an email.
Digital Pathology Consultants introduces a new webinar on December 16, 2010 at 12 PM EST/ 9 AM PST titled “Unlock Your Future: Embrace The Potential Of Pathology” supported by our sponsors at the www.thedigitalpathologywiki.com.

I am very passionate about the fact that we must consider our people (ie. pathologists, lab managers, histotechs, administrators, assistants, etc) in the evolution of pathology. I know that might sound obvious, yet, so often the future of pathology is described by the change in technology, policies, tests, techniques, procedures etc rather then the impact these changes will have on the people involved. However, these people are essential and the key to all of these changes becoming a success. I’ve discussed this briefly before in another post titled “Is It Your Hardware, Software, or Peopleware?” This webinar will focus on the needs and benefits of having a professional coach for pathology departments, laboratories, and individuals. The official description and registration link are below.
Description
The practice of pathology is evolving rapidly and pathologists must prepare for tomorrow. Over the next 10 years several changes such as the advancement of personalized medicine, the onset of electronic medical records, and the emergence of significant technological advances like digital pathology, will greatly impact how a pathologist performs his/her job. Therefore pathologists must start to explore, experiment, and learn new ways of thinking, and working professionally. Coaching has proven to be a very powerful means of guiding and supporting people and/or organizations to solve difficult problems and achieve complex goals. This webinar will discuss how working with a coach can make a difference in your organization and help everyone prepare for the future of pathology.
