Emerging Stronger in Changing Times

Thank you for joining us on Tuesday, August 7, 2012 in Nashville, Tennessee for the second annual Women Leaders in Healthcare Conference. We are sure that this one-day conference transformed the way you think about change!

Without a doubt, we're living through a time of incredible change and uncertainty as healthcare leaders today. How do we find the motivation, much less the time, to grab onto the opportunities that accompany the multiple challenges and transformations we face? And how do we leverage all of this to emerge stronger as women leaders in healthcare?

The Women Leaders in Healthcare Conference was developed by women healthcare leaders for women executives and future healthcare leaders. We spent the day learning from some of the most successful and powerful women in healthcare, and took part in networking opportunities that can't be beat. You emerged empowered with new ideas and best practices to leverage change for strategic advantage, improveing the success of your organization, extended your network, and grow exponentially in your career.
