WHAT OUR NURSE LEADERS

Have To Say!

“For me the biggest takeaway was realizing I was not alone. Everyone in leadership always seemed so together and confident but through multiple sessions I learned everyone felt insecure at some point. Knowing that they had overcome gave me the confidence to continue forward and evolve into a better leader.”

“I have been coming to Synova conferences for 20 years. When I first started to come, I was a really young leader.  I don’t even know if I considered myself a leader and I grew so much as a leader during those y ears and I have to credit so much of that to the Synova conferences.”

“Sometimes as a leader you have to dig really deep to support your team and I really believe that the NICU Leadership Forum and the mentors I have gained through this community have made me a better leader. Even though it’s hard right now we have to keep growing together.”

“The forum of people is such a great group that I have gotten to know over the years that gives you an incredible amount of support not just at the conference but all year long.”

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Reimagine, Engage, Advocate, and Lead with Love

In an ever-evolving healthcare landscape, the need for nurse leaders to be authentic has never been more vital. As we embrace the unique attributes of our workforce, integrate innovative technologies, and navigate complex healthcare systems, the need for compassionate, visionary, and strong nurse leaders is paramount. Join us at the 2024 NICU Leadership Forum, where we will gather nurse leaders from across the globe to inspire, empower, and BE REAL.

At the 2024 NICU Leadership Forum, we will:

  • Reimagine our “Dream Teams” as formal and informal leaders by setting expectations and following through with accountability
  • Engage and improve communication between the four generations currently in the workforce
  • Advocate for your team by learning actionable solutions for unit leaders to retain staff while addressing inequities
  • Lead with Love to enhance decision-making, team dynamics, and patient outcomes
