Healthcare HR Week 2025 Special Webinar
Healthcare Workforce Management in 2030: Preparing HR Leaders for What’s Next
Tuesday, March 11, 2025 | 1:00 p.m. CT (2:00 p.m. ET) | FREE
The healthcare industry is in an ongoing workforce crisis. Annual burnout-related turnover now costs organizations up to a staggering $9 billion for nurses and $6.3 billion for physicians.1 With these escalating financial pressures and a looming shortage of qualified healthcare professionals, the role of HR leaders has never been more critical. HR leaders are uniquely positioned to drive change, foster engagement, and shape the future of the healthcare workforce. This webinar offers an opportunity to explore actionable strategies to help your organization build a resilient, inclusive, and efficient workforce to prepare for 2030 and beyond. Our panel of HR professionals will discuss how to create environments that attract and retain top talent, optimize workforce planning to enhance efficiency and reduce costs, and empower leadership to focus on strategic priorities. With real-world experiences and forward-looking strategies, this session will help you navigate workforce trends and challenges while leveraging technology and other innovative solutions to create meaningful change.
