Real hope is tantamount as our second immune system and as we look around the world; we see the hope and solidarity we culminate when we all set aside our differences and fight against this common enemy. Although we’ve felt this precipitated global hope shortage, we stay hoping there will be a better tomorrow and believe it’s going to come sooner than we think. We just need to hold on to that end of the rope, just a bit longer.

We have found a new joy in putting these events together, and want to continue doing so for you. We do this as our way of thanking you for the support you’ve given us over the years. We have the content, we have resources, and we want to help you continue to stay engaged.

This upcoming week you can expect a similar schedule this week with our Sense Making Conversations on Friday at 12:30 pm. .

As well as our “Changemaker20” sessions with our Changemakers, from Tuesday-Thursday, also at 12:30 pm.

The Future of our Healthcare

Zayna Khayat
Health Futurist & Systems Thinking
Zayna is a futurist that’s sought after many global companies and conferences that want to get ahead in health and innovation. Her work and research have collaboratively urged her audiences to demand more in their health care. Dr. Khayat was previously the lead of health system innovation at MaRS Discovery District, a health innovation hub in Toronto, Canada. Currently, Zayna Khayat is a Future Strategist with SE Health.

There is a power shift occurring – from the healthcare provider to ‘people-powered health care.’ In this ‘patient revolution’, patients are taking matters into their own hands, now that they have more information as well as the means of production. Employers are also starting to become healthcare organizations, rather than waiting for or trying to fix the current healthcare system. Dr. Khayat brings a powerful perspective, and insight into what citizens, employers, and policy-makers must do today to enable and even catalyze positive change for tomorrow.
