T-Minus 33 Days Until the Annual Lean Healthcare Transformation Summit – The Annual Push

I’m counting down the days until the 5th Annual Lean Healthcare Transformation Summit, June 4-5 in Los Angeles, CA. I hope it helps in getting the word out. We are 33 days away, and we have 450 people registered!  More than half of the attendees are Healthcare Value Network members!  We produced this video that describes what you’ll see at the Summit.

We track how we are doing on the registrations and compare this to previous years.  Here’s what it looks like today:

Looks like we are about where we planned to be.  This is always the hardest time.  How to get the word out to those who may be interested in attending?  It’s an annual struggle.  I wrote about this last year.

So, what do we have that other conferences don’t have?  We have great learning sessions:
