Thursday, April 10th, 2025 | 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM CT

A stable, engaged front-line workforce is the foundation of a high-performing health system — yet burnout and staffing shortages continue to challenge health systems nationwide.

Learnings include:

How to operationalize shared executive ownership of workforce goals
