Make Your Mark! Why Legacy Still Matters

This publication is based on a speech titled "Turning Us Around: Lessons from a Life in Patient Care." A talk given by Freda Lewis-Hall, M.D. covering a series of topics, including the need for a top-to-bottom reappraisal of how we in healthcare view ourselves, given the nagging lack of trust by the public in what we do. Her talk centered on legacy, and why it is more important than ever, even in a world where memories are short and fame is fleeting. Whatever you do, whomever you lead, however you envision your legacy, Freda Lewis-Hall believes that what you read in this publication will help you recognize that your contributions are important, that your legacy genuinely matters, and that the time to forge your legacy begins right now!
