Welcome to NTDEA 2009!
This year will bring a lot of great opportunities for everyone in diabetes and healthcare in general. As we are in the midst of change, people can be fearful of what is to come. Fear can be a great motivator to step-up and create new ways of doing what we have always done. Or, fear can create avoidance and resistance to moving forward in 2009. If you are feeling weighed down day-to-day and find yourself fighting change, I invite you to look at the benefit of how you are choosing to BE. Is how you are choosing to BE producing what you want in your life? Everything we do in life is a choice.
As your NTDEA President in 2009, I am committed to coaching this organization to new ways of BEing with one another and creating an open environment to change. I have also declared that I will research new possibilities to increase the number of attendees at our meetings. This may include something as complex as utilizing the latest technology or it may be as simple as improving how we choose to be in relationship with our colleagues.
The NTDEA Board looks forward to meeting everyone at our next meeting, Tuesday, January 27th titled "The ABC's and Zzzzz's" by Tammy Harden, CRT,RPSGT, BS, Regional Clinical Specialistm Rested Corp.
Anyone interested in Chairing a Seminar for NTDEA to assist with fundraising, please email the board at ntdeaboard@ntdea.org.
Create a great start to 2009,
Diane Wallace, RD, CDE, RMT, CPC
President of NTDEA
