Speak Up Stories: The Art and Science of Storytelling
Saturday, February 10, 8:00-9:00 AM
Accredited for Pharmacists and Technicians
The 2024 PharmaCE Expo keynote session addresses the pervasive issue of self-silencing in professional settings, where individuals often hold back their opinions, ideas, and concerns due to fear of judgment, rejection, and ridicule. This reluctance to speak up can hinder personal growth, stifle innovation, and impede organizational progress. Our keynote speaker will demonstrate the critical importance of speaking up for personal and professional development, how to gain practical strategies to overcome fear, and how to polish communication skills. At the conclusion of the session, learners will be equipped to assess the timing and context for speaking up, influence organizational culture, and contribute valuable information and insight to pharmacy practice.
