“It’s not just what or how you do things that matters; what matters more is that what and how you do things is consistent with your WHY.”

~Simon Sinek~ 

The purpose of this conference is to empower nurses as leaders and change agents whose initiatives measurably improve patient outcomes and hospital bottom lines.

  • Describe why it matters that nurses use their bold voices to drive change.
  • Explain how and why to apply purpose to clinical practice by creating a model of care focusing on evidence-based practice and quality.
  • Identify the critical behaviors and skills necessary for nurses to thrive and excel both personally and professionally.
