Do you need to set goals for your consulting practice? Or do just need to

find a way to stick to the goals you've set? In either case you will learn a

new strategy to improve your consulting practice. Learn to avoid those New

Year's resolutions that seem, like snow, to melt by the end of March.

Instead learn a way to incorporate steps into your daily life to help you

reach your goals.

 

Who should attend:

  • Consultants who need more clients
  • Consultants looking to expand their business to the next level
  • Consultants ready to rethink their marketing strategy
  • People considering consulting

Audience:

Consultants, managers, salespeople..

 

Norman Daoust Biography

Prior to founding Daoust Associates, Norman was the modeling, standards, and Health Level Seven expert at Partners HealthCare Systems and the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston. He has also worked as a software developer for a national healthcare vendor (Siemens), a national consulting firm (Bradford National Corporation), and the state of Massachusetts. One of Norman's previous occupations was as a school teacher. He holds a B.S., cum laude, in Mathematics from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst.

Norman holds two crucial positions in Health Level Seven (HL7), the international healthcare standards organization: Secretary of the Technical Steering Committee, and Modeling and Methodology Facilitator for the Patient Administration Committee. He has been an active contributor to the Health Level Seven Reference Information Model, a comprehensive healthcare data model, since its inception. In recognition of his contributions to that organization, he was bestowed their W. Ed Hammond, Ph.D., Volunteer of the Year award.

Norman also serves as the President of the Greater Boston Chapter of the Independent Computer Consultants Association (ICCA) and a member of the Board of Directors of the Boston Chapter of the Data Management Association International (DAMA).

For some reason he thrives on projects and tasks that most other people avoid!
