Jean Burelle, President of the HBS Club of France, kindly invites our members to join them at a lunch debate with Jacques Marseille.
Jacques Marseille nous parlera de son dernier livre, paru fin janvier 2009, « l’Argent des Français. Les chiffres et les mythes ».
La crise financière a agi comme une piqûre de rappel sur une hantise séculaire des Français : leur pouvoir d’achat baisserait, la pauvreté exploserait… Les Français sont fâchés avec la réalité économique. C’est ce que pense Jacques Marseille qui va à l’encontre d’idées reçues : les Français râlent mais n’ont jamais été aussi prospères. Pour réconcilier les Français avec l’argent, Jacques Marseille propose des mesures-chocs. Son livre qui veut aller au-delà des mythes suscite la polémique.
Venue : Cercle de l'Union Interalliée, 12.30pm
"Measuring Health Care Quality"
Conference and "get together" with Denise Silber, eHealth specialist, co-hosted by the HCF and Institut Montaigne
What do we really know about the quality of the health care we receive? Which systems most closely measure the results of healthcare providers? Are the principles of quality management applicable to medicine? How does Information Technology play into the picture? These questions are of vital interest to all. So please come join us as we welcome guest speaker, Denise Silber, HBS MBA '79, at the Institut Montaigne on April 8 2009.
Denise Silber, an eHealth expert and entrepreneur, and American in Paris, is the founder of Basil Strategies consultants, providers of eHealth and eMarketing services., as well as the Association for the Quality of Healthcare on the Net. Public speaker and author, Denise has written three reports on healthcare quality for the Institut Montaigne. The most recent publication "Measuring Health Care Quality" provides 1) an impressive set of data regarding the failure of healthcare systems around the world to apply the highest standards of care and 2) some simple proposals for the way forward
The event will start with the conference at 6:30pm, to be followed immediately by a small cocktail.
Venue : Institut Montaigne
