I have 25 years of corporate healthcare leadership experience, yet I’m finding it surprisingly difficult to secure my next role. It’s astonishing how launching a consulting practice and contributing meaningfully in the nonprofit sector, work that requires adaptability, initiative, and broad operational skill, can be perceived as a professional liability rather than an asset.

No offense but look at the state of healthcare in this country… and you were in a leadership role contributing to the current state. No one can afford it. The quality has been trending downwards for awhile. Americans are sicker than ever before. And the US public now perceives “corporate healthcare” to be a four letter word.

If you were on the provider side well I hate to break it to you but outside your bubble it has a major reputation problem now … no one cares that your big healthcare system was non profit or for profit because they act the same. Jack up the charges to the payors … shove massive deductibles onto patients and charge unconscionable list prices to the self-pays and then hunt them down until the very end. You might want to distance yourself or say how you’re different and shouldn’t be lumped in with big pharma, big tech, and big healthcare.

I completely agree with this thoughtful response and believe population health is the driving mechanism for real healthcare results. So happy my daughter hustled in grad school in every job that was global health related as she is profoundly secure and happy in her global health job today, even getting a promotion soon!

Why do you think that is? Because you might have divided attention? I’ve worked with some nonprofits, and the skills are incredibly valuable, so I agree that it should definitely be seen as an asset.

I agree totally with your summary. I am having a similar experience and unemployed for 13-14 months. Thank you for sharing your experience as you are not alone. I have strong considered a career shift, but not certain where after almost 30 years in healthcare. Do you have a plan b?

Mental Health, inherited or choice? I am finding myself struggling with processing that ADD, Depression, or Bipolar is a chemical imbalance in the brain vs. behavioral therapy. The best analogy given to me is you would treat diabetics with insulin so why not consider prescriptions to help mental health. 2020 has thrown more at me than I’m able to handle. Has anyone here noticed a significant improvement after a prescription to help psych issues?

Okay, it’s time to stop putting on a face about this. I love my boyfriend so much, but covid is ruining us. We are both still WFH and argue every few days about the dumbest stuff.

My stomach hurts every time we fight and I (independent of him) feel so stuck in this horrible global crisis. I don’t want to lose him, but I need to figure out how to dig us both out of this unsustainable mental state.
