NICU Leadership Forum 2018

Joy at work? Is that an oxymoron? Not at all!

• Research shows that positive emotions, such as joy, can make staff more motivated and higher achieving.
• Joyful leaders foster a more joyful environment, which has been linked to a wide range of different performance-related behaviors including enhanced thinking and reasoning, more efficient decision-making, and greater collaboration.
• Creating a joyful work environment not only increases staff satisfaction and engagement, it can also decrease turnover and reduce errors.

You deal with incredibly complex and difficult situations every day. So, how can we as leaders regain a sense of joy? How can we work as a team?  What are approaches we can take to nurture our workforce so they become joyful, productive, and engaged staff? Come find out!

ARVO 2018

In a rapidly changing world, eye and vision researchers are emerging from the lab and the clinic to engage the public, patients and policymakers regarding the sight-saving work that we do and the benefits it brings to our societies. Our passion for our work and commitment to evidence-based science and medicine empower these conversations as they occur around the world. We invite you to join us for the ARVO 2018 Annual Meeting in Honolulu, Hawaii, where 11,000 international basic and clinical researchers will share the latest breakthroughs in vision research. Engage with your colleagues as we work to advance our science and expand its support within our communities and   governments.

The Pediatric Academic Societies (PAS) Meeting brings together thousands of pediatricians and other health care providers united by a common mission: improve the health and well-being of children worldwide.
