    Gerald Lynn spent twenty-seven years in the pharmaceutical industry, working alongside doctors, nurses, and hospital administrators, before facing the healthcare system from a completely different side as the only child caring for his mother until she was ninety-two. 
     
    Surviving the U.S. Healthcare System pulls back the curtain on what really happens in hospitals, doctors' offices, skilled nursing units, and long-term care facilities- the truths no one tells you until you are already living them. 
     
    From misdiagnoses and potentially fatal medication errors to unforeseen drug interactions and insurance denials, this guide exposes the challenges that can jeopardize your health and your finances if you are not prepared, and shows you exactly how to recognize and avoid them before it is too late. 
     
    This is not theory pulled from a medical journal. It is practical, insider guidance from someone who has seen the system from inside the industry, and from the bedside of someone he loved. 
     
    Readers have called it a must-read and praised how clearly it turns a complicated, often frustrating system into practical, real-world guidance. 
     
    If you are caring for an aging parent, managing your own health, or  
    want to walk into your next doctor's appointment prepared instead of vulnerable, this guide gives you the insider knowledge to protect the people you love.

    What does leadership become when AI amplifies your humanity? 
    Leadership is changing—faster than most leaders can keep up. AI is accelerating decisions, amplifying noise, and reshaping how teams work together. But the leaders who thrive in this new era won’t be the ones who adopt the most tools; they’ll be the ones who build the most intelligent rooms: environments where rhythm, clarity, momentum, and human connection work together to create courageous, aligned teams. 
    In The Intelligent Business, executive coach and global facilitator David Hickman distills thousands of hours in leadership rooms around the globe into a practical architecture for leading with clarity, courage, and wisdom in the age of AI. Through compelling stories, real-world examples, and a simple, repeatable framework, Hickman shows how modern leaders can build organizations that think clearly, execute consistently, and stay deeply connected—even as technology reshapes the workplace. 
    You’ll discover how to:Create intentional cadence that strengthens alignment and reduces driftBuild clarity of reality, priority, and communication—even in fast, noisy environmentsGenerate momentum through disciplined execution and meaningful measurementDeepen connection so teams trust one another, speak truthfully, and move togetherIntegrate intelligent technology as a supportive partner—not a replacement for human leadership 
    The future of leadership isn’t artificial or becoming more mechanical. It’s intelligent—deeply human and more aware. Learn how to use AI to amplify what matters, preserve the insights leaders tend to forget, and create rooms where people think, decide, and grow with greater integrity and courage. 
    Step into the room that remembers. Lead the business that moves.
