Dr. Erin L. Albert - Fridays

What's your reason for being? Ikigai? Raison d'etre? Values? What do you want to leave behind? Don't know? Haven't thought about it? What if I told you you could figure it out...while playing a board game? Voila! Check out my conversation with Joseph Weissgold from After, about his company's new Kickstarter campaign for Now & Then - a brand new board game that talks about end of life and legacy in a fun way! Check out: nowandthen.xyz or https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/after/nowandthen for all the details! The campaign runs from now until November 16th.

Here's ONE good thing about Monday: a fresh start! Fun stuff coming up this week and now: New P4 APPE Student Helen starts with us at ASCP! She'll be with us for our ASCP 50th Anniversary Annual Meeting - yay! Returning guest to the podcast coming up this week on his company's new Kickstarter campaign!

Pharmacists - what do you know about these certificate programs in PGX? I'm asking for a friend in pharmacy! ASCP has a 1 hour PGX CPE here - but it's not a Certificate: http://learning.ascp.com/diweb/catalog/item/id/2513054/q/q=pharmacogenomics&c=305 Certificates or longer programs in PGX for Pharmacists: Applied Pharmacogenomics Certificate ACCP https://www.accp.com/report/index.aspx?iss=0618&art=7 Clinical Pharmacogenomics Mayo Clinic https://ce.mayo.edu/genomics/content/clinical-pharmacogenomics-case-based-approach-your-practice-2019 NACDS Pharmacogenomics Certificate Program Test to Learn https://www.nacds.org/news/nacds-university-of-pittsburgh-extend-test2learn-community-based-pharmacogenomics-certificate-program/ Pharmacogenomics Certificate ASHP http://elearning.ashp.org/products/6673/pharmacogenomics-certificate-program Pharmacogenomics Course Manchester/RxGenomics https://www.rxgenomix.com/courses/pharma The Certifications/Certificates list where this info came from: https://payhip.com/b/XO

I’m going to need some good work mojo this week my peeps...thoughts and prayers!

October is facing us with its 4Q-ness next week!

Here is the ASCP CPE and BCGP educational needs assessment for 2020 - could you please fill it out if you're a pharmacist? Here's the LinkedIn Live Ep 6 on World Pharmacists' Day! See you on IIB this weekend. I'll be back on Friday!

Asked to give a talk about this 1Q20 on this topic this week...so thought I'd start putting some of my pet peeves and rants down here. CAUTION: I HAVE VERY STRONG OPINIONS (and a lot of pet peeves) when it comes to effectively running meetings. Give a listen, and yes - I have a tone here - but it's only because I'm sensitive to your time, and I want everyone, myself included - to run some great, efficient meetings out there! Friends don't let friends run crappy, inefficient meetings that could have been an email.

I knew there were many reasons why I want to visit Prague in 2020!  That aside, here's links to items mentioned this momentous Monday: 1. #RocktoberRx - and how you can apply to be on LinkedIn Live to talk Pharmacy Awesomeness in Oct, or fill out my survey on topics for it. 2. ASCP 2020 Continuing Education CPE and BCGP Needs Assessment - please fill it out in 10 if you're a pharmacist and include your email in the last question if you want to be a part of the drawing for a FREE annual membership to ASCP! (A $279 value.) 3. ASCP Annual Meeting Nov 7-10, 2019 in Grapevine, TX - If Geriatrics are your jam - you must attend!

https://tinyurl.com/RocktoberRx will lead you to the Google form to complete if YOU have something revolutionary, interesting, or novel to share with pharmacists and healthcare in order to improve our profession AND patient care! If you have something that's cool to share (without being too salesy), fill out the google form and maybe YOU will be my next guest here, or at LinkedIn Live during National Pharmacists' Month!

Friday AGAIN!!!! We won by making it!

The P word here is perfection. I'm not a fan of that word. The good enough is the enemy of perfection....and as an entrepreneur and person who gets stuff done, good enough is usually good enough for me. But I AM a fan of perfection when it comes to resumes. Today, I share yet another blunder from Dr. Albert and how you can be better than Dr. A when it comes to developing your own resume. That, and I can spell H-E-A-L-T-H-C-A-R-E. REALLY! :D  And don't forget World Patient Safety Day is today! 

I love talking to founders of new organizations and associations! Here's a new org started back in 2018 - with a HUGE value DROP JUST FOR LISTENERS OF THE DR. ERIN L. ALBERT SHOW!
