5 KEYS TO MAINTAINING BALANCE DURING DISRUPTION (Resilience keynote)

As the Greek philosopher, Heraclitus, said: “change is the only constant.” Well, Heraclitus would have been amazed if he were able to look around today. In this session, Janine delivers a powerful, clear, and concise talk with an interactive activation at the conclusion designed to help your employees and/or members not only spark resilience but maintain a path of growth during disruptive change.  Participants will leave inspired to move despite fear and shift their focus to doing “what they can, with what they have, right where they are” in both their personal and professional lives. 

Key participant takeaways:

• If you compromise your values, you will ultimately lose.
• If you’ve got time to ‘lean’ you’ve got time to ‘clean’.
• Never let ’em see you sweat.
• Check your blind spots.
• Don’t just say you care, show you care.

DISCOVER YOUR MISSION: 5 LESSONS FROM A 50-STATE JOURNEY

Through stories that are both comical and moving, Janine takes audiences across the nation along her historic journey. A journey rooted in five life lessons instilled by Stange’s strong-willed Italian mother who had strict rules about efficiency, organization and living an honest life. Using her own story as the example, Stange makes the argument that the time for self-examination is now. Her mission took both a shift in thinking and habits to abandon the comfort zones that Janine occupied for over a decade. 

Using her signature wit and wisdom, Janine motivates people to not only identify ways to make personal change, but to give back along the way. Attendees will have the opportunity to examine their professional and personal goals/values – and walk away inspired to think big, increase their performance, and overcome any obstacles in the way of their mission.  Though everyone’s path to success is different, we all can “Start small, and start today”.

In a unique interactive activity at the conclusion called, The Mountain Toss, Janine activates each attendee to “do what they can, with what they have, where they are”.

Janine’s historic journey was rooted in five life-lessons instilled by Stange’s strong-willed Italian mother who had strict rules about efficiency, organization and living an honest life. 

Each member of the audience receives a postcard sized handout with the quote “Do What You Can With What You’ve Got, Where You Are.” It is used in a group activation at the end of her talk called the “Mountain Toss”. 

HOW YOU MADE THEM FEEL: A DAUGHTER'S PERSPECTIVE (Healthcare)

Like most of us, Janine promised to give back, eventually. But as a talented singer, first she wanted to win a Grammy and go on world tour.  After her mother’s sudden passing, Stange was devastated, with no anchor. But it was this tragedy that shook her out of her comfort zones. Fueled by the heartache and as an homage to her mom, Janine embarked on a mission to sing the National Anthem in all fifty states to raise awareness for the troops.

Janine communicates her own personal patient experience story, as she talks about spending every day with her mom who had stage IV breast cancer.  From the chemo-treatments to hospital and rehab stays, to in-home hospice care, she personally got to witness the importance of every person that took care of her mom.  Attendees will walk away realizing how vigilance and attentiveness is both noticed and appreciated – along with feeling valued, respected, and honored for their own mission in healthcare.
