It's crucial to foster environments where women can rise to leadership roles and drive meaningful change.

Modern Healthcare's 2024 Women Leaders in Healthcare event was an excellent experience! A major theme that emerged was intentionality- it's particularly important for women leaders to be intentional about their time, focus, and goals. Here are some standout insights: 💡 Raise your hand early in your career to take on tasks and projects others avoid. 💡 Focus on Work/Life integration, not balance. 💡 Recognize how the pace you set impacts your team. 💡 Be intentional with your messaging to ensure you resonate with your audience. 💡 You can't be defensive and curious at the same time—it's like trying to sneeze with your eyes open. 💡 Imposter Syndrome is BS! It's natural to question yourself—don’t label it and sit in it! 💡 Great leaders do consistently what good leaders do occasionally. 💡 Embrace your journey—though it may be different than you originally envisioned, it can still be incredible! #WomenInLeadership #HealthcareLeadership #WorkLifeIntegration #ImposterSyndrome #Leadership
