IHA Leadership Development Program


IHA Conference Center, Des Moines, IA  
Tuesday, November 12, 2024 - Tuesday, June 03, 2025   iCalendar Central Standard Time

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

In today’s health care environment, accepting a leadership role is far more challenging and complex than ever. Leadership accountabilities must be balanced with an excellent grasp of human relations skills. The IHA Leadership Development Program cultivates critical leadership skills and competencies to increase retention of committed, quality staff in Iowa hospitals.

Program faculty have fine-tuned their content after years of presenting to this audience and have enhanced a rich educational program. The program offers a multidimensional leadership approach that helps participants better connect session learning to everyday situations. Additionally, small groups allow deeper networking and problem-solving by applying lessons learned in real-life scenarios.

INTENDED AUDIENCE

This program is for health care professionals who have assumed organizational management or leadership responsibilities and accountabilities. Experienced staff looking to refresh their skills and knowledge will also benefit.
