John Lewis Partnership’s Post

“🎉 Excited to dust off my suitcase and hit the road again after what feels like ages since my last trip was before the pandemic. Heading to Orlando for the APhA conference and here are the top 10 reasons why I’m thrilled to travel for work (even over the weekend) and escape my home office: 1. Finally, a chance to wear cute shoes instead of my house slippers. 👠 2. Trading Teams calls for face-to-face networking – can’t wait to see real smiles instead of emojis! 😁 3. Seeing old friends, making new ones and sharing with pharmacy students what #TeamCVS is all about. 🤝 4. Bid farewell to interruptions from UPS deliveries and the incessant hum of lawnmowers during important meetings. 📦 5. Getting to explore new dining options that don’t involve my own kitchen. 🍽️ 6. Rekindling my love-hate relationship with airport security. 🛫 7. Actually having an excuse to use my travel-sized toiletries again. 🧴 8. Embracing the challenge of remembering how to pack efficiently. 🧳 9. Escaping the canine chaos of my home office for a few blissful days of fur freedom. 🐕 10. And last but not least, the thrill of realizing I can’t mute anyone in real life! 🤣 Here’s to a weekend of learning, connecting, and maybe even a little bit of sleep deprivation. Come visit us at booth #101. 🌴 #APhA2024 #ForPharmacy #CVSatAPhA2024 #OutofOfficeAdventures Joshua Cahill Amanda Jean Kelley Cara (Walkup) Kramer Salma Abdulghani, PharmD Tara Wagner Jimmy Gallagher Jim Barth Wendy Perreault Amy Oliveira Danyelle Felchner

The Kirkwood Every week, we hear the same thing from too many people; “I wish I’d known about all the different services you offer sooner.” We owe it to the people of Kirklees to never stop until everyone affected by a life limiting illness has access to the best possible care and support. With your help, we can reshape opinions and reach more people than ever before. We want everyone who might benefit from our services to reach out early enough for us to make a positive impact on their quality of life. Here’s how you can help.. By having one of our information points, it could be for your staff in their dining room, a meeting space, or areas where your customers come, such as reception areas, showroom etc. There are various options and sizes to choose from and hopefully one, which will suit your circumstances. Our information leaflets also come in a range of languages, to ensure we are accessible to all. With your help, we will reach more people across Kirklees and ensure no one with a life limiting illness or their respective families doesn’t receive the care and support they deserve. If you can help, please get in touch. This is just one of the ways, business’s and The Kirkwood collaboratively work together. Beverley.shaw@thekirkwood.org.uk Committing to an information point costs your business absolutely nothing, simply space!

Great Greeter Service. My theory is meeting people within their comfort zones to create Safety together inside those parameters. There are individuals who are uncomfortable with the concept of "Security," as popularly practiced. They see it as exclusionary and even reactionary and at odds with deeply held beliefs about promoting inclusiveness. It's with them in mind that I offer my #GreatGreater service, where I warmly welcome patrons and vendors to spaces and events that prefer a more warm approach, which is what I did last night at an art gallery reopening. I wore regular clothes, no orange #SafeFunByCap button, nothing with "Security"on it and most importantly, a smile and exuding welcoming energy. My Great Greeter service has bonded over the years with organizers and participants who prize openness. While on watch as ever for trouble, I spent last night being a #bulkydiplomat as I call projecting big heartedness from my big frame. #SafeFun can be created in a number of ways to achieve the same end result: mutually beneficial, incident-free occasions. That didn't stop several attendees from asking was I security for the evening, with one announcing I was the bouncer for the event.

Have you ever wondered what the stairway between the balcony of 100k foot leadership and the dance floor of in-the-trenches service looks like? I found that stairway at the recent Sutter Health Management Meeting in San Francisco’s Chase Center.  This pathway is paved in values, the Sutter Health values. Walking up the stairs to get a better vantage point requires curiosity, a mindset that asks questions about the view. Going up these stairs also takes the drive for excellence, knowing that high-level observation is necessary to orient, decide, and then act.  And finally, that climb requires the value of integrity because climbing is not always easy, but it is the right thing to do for the team. And it is for the team, that leaders come down to the dance floor, to work shoulder-to-shoulder through all the obstacles, valleys, and mountains. That value of teamwork makes the dance beautiful, especially when all the dancers are bound by the same purpose.  That purpose of providing care for each other and for all neighbors. On the dance floor, we remind ourselves that the care we give means nothing without the values of both inclusion and compassion. We dance for our patients; we dance for each other. We dance together with compassion; we dance together with love.  #TeamSutter #SutterProud
