Dr. Hassan Tetteh Speaking Topics

  • The Art of Human Care

    In his signature keynote, Dr. Tetteh shares his experiences as both a patient whose life was saved and a physician who saves lives, so that people see reflections from his life in their own. In healthcare, both costs and burnout escalate to new highs every day, increasing frustration for all. Through Human Care, Dr. Tetteh redefines what it means to heal and reignites people’s desire to impact the world for good. Audiences are inspired not only to make a difference, but to change the world.

    Participants will gain:

    • A passion to make healthcare great again
    • The antidote for burnout in healthcare
    • A new perspective on what it means to heal

  • The Science of Human Care

    In this dynamic and engaging seminar, Dr. Tetteh teaches his exclusive, practical methodology for delivering “Human Care,” a transformative model of health care that offers hope and healing for today’s struggling system. His unique theory challenges the current state of fragmented care, escalating costs and inefficient delivery. Through his multi-hour, interactive workshops, Dr. Tetteh teaches the six essential steps for providing timely, comprehensive, patient-centered care. Participants walk away inspired and equipped to make a positive impact on their patients, in their organizations, and on humankind.

    Participants will gain:

    • A formula that delivers a new level of healing
    • An unveiling of a hidden, life-changing power

  • Embracing Diversity for Improved Health Outcomes

    In this highly interactive program, Dr. Tetteh facilitates a discovery process using practical scenarios and candid conversations to reveal specific, bottom-line impacts of diversity on participant groups. If healthcare providers, hospitals and care facilities are to become the “preferred choice” for a diverse pool of patients, they must deliver culturally competent messages aligned to patients’ interests to improve the healthcare outcomes of the population they serve. Participants in this program learn three ways diversity contributes to an organization's ability to innovate, profit and make a real impact on society.

    Participants will gain:

    • Actionable steps to become the “preferred choice”
    • Improved understanding of cultural competency
    • Enhanced strategies for patient-centered care

  • Humanistic Communication in Healthcare

In a variety of presentation methods, Dr. Tetteh shares how to tailor communication with cultural sensitivity, and hone the ability to strategically and effectively interact with all patients. Audiences leave with practical strategies proven to boost the communication skills of healthcare providers for improved patient compliance and better health outcomes.

    Participants will gain:

    • A novel toolkit to enhance communication skills
    • An improved EQ for improved patient outcomes
    • A new perspective of strategic communication

Discovering and developing team priorities and individual dreams elevates standard project management and facilitates successful project implementation. The Society of Federal Health Professionals (AMSUS) deemed Dr. Tetteh’s High Performance Project Management (HPPM) a Best Practice in 2015. Audiences take away the processes and skills to marry project management to people leadership for transformational change.

    Participants will gain:

    • Practical HPPM skills to achieve change management

    • Techniques to modernize business processes and ensure savings
