Making Managers in your laboratory more productive and more effective

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

THE DARK REPORT Announces a Special Audio Conference

AUSTIN, Texas (October 1, 2008) – Today’s most innovative clinical laboratories and pathology labs are tapping a powerful resource to achieve world-class outcomes-their managers! THE DARK REPORT announces a special audio conference “Making Managers in your laboratory more productive and more effective.” This audio conference will take place on Tuesday, October 21, 2008 at 1 PM EDT.

“This is an emerging trend,” stated Jeff Smith, Vice-President of Leadership Development for Slone Partners of Miami, Florida. “The art and science of management in clinical laboratories is now reaching the point where, for a laboratory to be competitive and financially self-sustaining, it must get top productivity from its management team. In fact, this is how first mover and early adopter laboratories are responding to ongoing budget cuts and the acute shortage of trained medical technologists (MTs) and other technical staff that makes it near impossible to operate their laboratories at 100% of authorized staffing levels.”

For those laboratory administrators, lab directors, and lab managers interested in advancing their ability to create a high-performance management team, Jeff Smith has agreed to conduct a special audio conference on this topic for readers of Dark Daily and The Dark Report. Titled: “Improving Lab Management Productivity: How To Evaluate Your Team And Stimulate Increased Performance And Profitability,” this unique learning opportunity will take place on October 21, 2008 at 1:00 P.M. Eastern. This will be a fact-filled, 90-minute session. For information and to register, visit http://www.darkreport.com/Audio/6.25.08/audio-register.htm.

This audio conference helps you understand how to identify the super-stars on your management team. You’ll learn how to re-recruit them so they don’t go off to work in another laboratory. There will be information on how to spot the non-achievers on your existing management team, along with proven methods you can use to help these disappointing managers either overcome their barriers to self growth and lab achievement or to help them recognize their deficiencies, setting up a mutual departure from the lab. Best of all, you’ll learn the proven secrets to creating an energized, enthusiastic “can do” management culture in your lab-one that consistently exceeds expectations. Editors and reports are invited to listen to this audio conference. For more information and to register, visit http://darkdaily.com/audio-conferences/index.php or call, toll-free, 800-560-6363.
