IHA Leadership Development Program


IHA Conference Center, Des Moines, IA  
Wednesday, November 16, 2022 - Tuesday, May 16, 2023   iCalendar Central Standard Time

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

In today’s health care environment, accepting a leadership role is far more challenging and complex than
ever before. Leadership accountabilities must be balanced with an excellent grasp of human relations
skills in working closely and collaborating with others. The IHA Leadership Development Program (LDP)
exists to develop critical leadership skills and competencies with the overarching objective of increasing
retention of committed, quality staff in Iowa hospitals.


Experts 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, designated small groups allows
a deeper level of networking, problem solving and confidence by applying lessons learned in real-life
scenarios.

INTENDED AUDIENCE

This program is for health care professionals who have taken on new management or leadership responsibilities and accountabilities in their organizations. Experienced staff looking to refresh their skills and knowledge will also benefit.
