InSight, like McKesson and its products, grows as the demand for peer collaboration becomes greater. 

To me, the value of InSight is built on collaboration and opportunity.  Whether you’re a volunteer leader within the organization, a member, or partner, you’re all afforded equal and multiple points of access to one another.  Through InSight programs, we can all find different ways to reach out to one another depending on our needs, our training budgets and our schedules.  It’s clear to me that my level of participation only facilitates and helps me maximize the products I interface with everyday to excel in my own job.  I see opportunity in all of the collaborative programs offered and can appreciate having the flexibility to choose from the program that makes the most sense to me.

What’s greatest about InSight is that with every opportunity, we’re creating a launching pad for future networking. Through face-to-face events like our Annual Conference, which takes place this year in October 18-20 in Atlanta, Georgia, we get first-hand knowledge on upgrades and implementations, best practices and successes straight from one another─the people that know our business best. 

Through interactive channels like our Web site, which continues to go through iterations based on the needs of our membership, we get access to intellectual capital, networking tools and other online resources to keep us current and connected.  Virtual opportunities like our upcoming Webinar series give us additional points of contact while minimizing travel time and dollars.  Keep an eye out for future details on this exciting new series.

With all of these collaborative programs, we get the chance to exchange openly with other customers sharing our roles and in some cases, challenges and views.  We can build a network of peers that extends beyond every program and event we participate in.  By getting the answers we need, and offering feedback and direction to others based on our own experiences, we’re building a year-round resource accessible at any level….whether by phone, face-to-face or online.

This is where I see collaboration and opportunity perpetuating InSight’s core value.  By continuing connections and solving problems from a community standpoint, we can all start working through our biggest challenges.  This positions us to not only solve our immediate issues but to collectively take steps to influence plans for the future.

I continue to see collaboration and opportunity in every aspect of InSight and hope that you do the same.  If you do have questions about our upcoming program line-ups, feel free to contact InSight at info@insight-net.org or 312.321.6839.
