Health care is going through a massive disruptive phase right now, with most of the changes being brought about by new technologies and new entrants, competitive and non-competitive. Ron Galloway will illustrate the scope of these changes, the impacts, and unintended consequences that may occur within the health care space. After the presentation, Ron and attendees will have a round table discussion on the impacts mentioned. Discuss the concerns of these disruptions with fellow health care executives while brainstorming solutions for the change.

Join us from 10:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. to participate in the ASHHRA19 volunteer event, Reading Is Fundamental, sponsored by Fidelity Investments. Tables will be set up in the Columbus Hall area near the Resource Center where you can inscribe a bookmark that will go into a book donated to a Chicago student at Franz Peter Schubert Elementary School. Reading Is Fundamental is committed to a literate America by inspiring a passion for reading among all children, providing quality content to make an impact. Help Fidelity provide children with the fundamentals for success!

And don't miss the Welcome Reception, from 5:00 - 6:00 p.m. in Grand Ballroom EF. All attendees and Full Conference exhibitors are invited to join us for this kick-off cocktail hour to meet the ASHHRA Board and network with conference attendees!

Steering Your Ship Through Rough Waters: Lessons on Leadership
Captain Phillips not only shares his compelling story of capture by Somali pirates, but as a “floating CEO” in charge of the day-to-day operations of a multi-million dollar ship and crew, he also draws lessons from his dramatic life experiences that can help attendees and their organizations survive and thrive — even in times when it seems hope and support are in short supply. This “hero of the high seas” has a powerful and timely message to kick off the first full day of ASHHRA19.

Get ready to have a great time with your fellow attendees from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. on Sunday, at Chicago’s Adler Planetarium. A TICKET IS REQUIRED for each person to enter the Social Event venue. You will not be admitted to the event without a ticket. No exceptions. A limited number of tickets are still available. Visit the Attendee Service Center and purchase your ticket before they’re gone.
