USI Nursing Leadership Conference happening April 5

February 15, 2023

Corinne Hancock, globally recognized expert in building world-class leaders, effective teams and cultural proficiency in chaotic environments, will be the keynote speaker at the University of Southern Indiana’s 20th annual Nursing Leadership Conference on April 5. 

USI is collaborating with the Indiana Organization for Nursing Leadership (IONL) and the University of Evansville to offer this event. The conference will begin at 8:30 a.m. in Carter Hall, located in University Center West, and will conclude at 3:30 p.m. following Hancock’s keynote. 

Hancock has worked on over 50 international projects with leading organizations across for-profit, non-profit and governmental sectors such as U.S. Department of State and U.S. Agency for International Development. She was on the front lines, building teams in high-pressure, stressful situations as the Director of Clinics for Project CURE and as a contracted State Department leadership coach. She has brought together diverse teams to train leaders, create community-based projects and deliver medical care in remote areas. 

In addition to Hancock’s presentation, there will be sessions with the Community Safety Coalition, Indiana State Nursing Association and the Indiana Professional Recovery Program. 

“The learning outcome of this conference is for attendees to implement effective management and leadership strategies in their healthcare practice and within their organization,” says Anita Hagan, Director of the USI Center for Health Professions Lifelong Learning. “We are excited to welcome Corinne as our keynote speaker and are interested in learning how her expertise from working in chaotic environments will help us thrive and build effective healthcare teams.” 

USI designates this activity for 5.5 contact hours. CE hours will be available for nurses, physicians, pharmacists, social workers and health facility administrators. CE hours will also be available for Indiana licensed marriage and family therapists, occupational therapists, occupational therapist assistants and dental professionals. 

The cost to attend is $130 for public admission and professionals, $60 for current graduate students and $20 for undergraduate students.
