Event Details

Join Dr. Mickey Lebowitz as he discusses his book, The EQ Prescription: Put Yourself First to Thrive in Healthcare and guides you through the Emotional Intelligence Zone and, using stories, anecdotes, data, self-reflections, and practical exercises, details how to better navigate your zone and the zone of others. The benefits of doing so are enormous: better decision-making, stronger relationships, feelings of accomplishment and job satisfaction, greater patient satisfaction and outcomes, enhanced leadership and organizational culture, and less risk of malpractice and burnout. If you want to enjoy your health-care profession fully and deservedly, be your best delivering patient care, not burnout or leave practice early, The EQ Prescription is written specifically for you.
