What our students have to say:
"Highly recommended for any current or aspiring leader"
“The leadership class, "Be the Leader Nobody Wants to Leave," came to me in the most challenging time in my career. When the CNO suggested the course I thought, "HOW am I going to fit a class into my day during a pandemic!” Oddly enough, it was the EXACT thing I needed to handle some very challenging situations as a leader. I was in the midst of redeploying staff, changing decisions daily on processes, as well as the challenges of hiring during a pandemic - all while trying to be that leader nobody wants to leave. The tools taught in the course, along with the coaching sessions provided, helped me in many ways. I would highly recommend this course to any current and aspiring leader."
"I am convinced that this formula is essential for creating a positive patient experience, and successful business"
“This class is not just for the nurse manager but anyone in leadership looking to create a successful team. I have not found this level of practical wisdom in any textbook or college class. I am convinced that this formula is essential for creating a positive patient experience, successful business, and a culture that employees can thrive in.”
"Great results"
“Prior to this class I had a different idea of what rounding was. Now, I round with a purpose and have been practicing my stay interviews with great results.”
"I would definitely consider sending more members of my leadership team to this training."
“I have had some basic training in leadership, but wanted something more in-depth. Despite being virtual, this course is really hands-on. The learning structure fits well with behaviorally-based learning in which the instructors teach by discussing the skill, modeling the skill, giving an opportunity to practice, and providing behaviorally-specific feedback during the coaching sessions. The lessons provide some very practical, but important tools to enhance my skills, engage my team, and to develop and retain my high-performers. I would definitely consider sending more members of my leadership team to this training.”
