Greetings!

Our Job Board is off and running - if you know some folks looking for sales/training/marketing jobs, we've got the place to search. Here are five new jobs recently listed with Impactiviti - know any people qualified? (please pass the link along if so!)

Summer tends to be a bit lighter on the conference schedule but there are two that I'll be attending later this month - the exl Public Relations and Communications Summit (NYC); and CBI's Forum on Patient-Centered Marketing (Philly). Here are all the details - maybe I'll see you at one of these events?

An ongoing ethical discussion - industry sponsorship of CME. Some say it should go away...

Pushing the Envelope
Pushing envelope
Sometimes pushing the envelope is digging right back to the bare foundation. Like Seth Godin does here about work and self-esteem.

Doctor-Patient Interactions

What could you do to help train your employees or plan your brand messaging if you had access to an (anonymized) library of recorded patient/doctor interactions? What is the real dialogue about the conditions and treatments in your field, and how does that impact messaging to physicians? Let me know if this resource is of interest to you - our partner network is loaded with top training and marketing resources including this new offering.

ALONG THOSE LINES - look at this news article today. Put aside the question, for the moment, of sponsorship. See the part about the dialogue? You have to wonder how pervasive an issue this is...
