Do you feel bored?

According to Global Leadership Summit featured speaker, Craig Groeschel – boring is the pathway to greatness.

Why? Because building consistency, with faithfulness, multiplied by time equals a lasting impact - whether in your work, in your home life, or with any of the goals you’ve set in life!

We were grateful for our team to hear Craig’s insightful advice. It exemplifies just one of the life-changing takeaways from the 2025 Global Leadership Summit, presented in part by Lead Wichita.

Even if you can’t make the summit’s second day, consider experiencing the summit online via streaming videos of each speaker. Invest in your leadership to keep your company thriving!

Thriving organizations begin with thriving leadership. That's why you should get to know one of our fantastic board members -- Schrader, Director of Human Resources at Pratt Regional Medical Center (PRMC). Brian gives of his time, talent, and dedication supporting empac. Take a look at our three questions with him:

1. How did you first get involved with empac, and what motivates you to stay engaged?

I became the new Director of Human Resources at PRMC when Ken Brown retired. Stacey offered for me to continue as a Board Member until Ken’s term expired a few months later. Once I saw how awesome empac was in its delivered services and excellent staff, it became easy for me to say “yes” to continuing on the board.

2. What do you think sets empac apart from other EAPs?

Empac maintains a high level of confidentiality which employees appreciate and while I’m not privy to “what” employees are being seen for, those that do opt to share their stories always have positive experiences. Stacey runs a tight ship as CEO and the excellence of the staff make empac a “cut above”.

3. As the Director of Human Resources at PRMC, can you describe the results you have seen within your organization/employees partnering with empac as your EAP?

I’ve had to personally oversee some mandatory counseling and was impressed in the manner that empac handled it, from the straightforward forms, the professionalism, and the wonderful interactions with staff. Everything about empac is first-rate and it’s a pleasure to serve on the Board when employees see the superior service.
