The annual meeting and exposition for LeadingAge, the long-term care association dedicated solely to nonprofit providers, has opened its registration portal.
Organizers once again expect more than 5,000 aging services providers and 400-plus exhibitors. All events will take place Oct. 27-30 at the Music City Center in Nashville.
Dozens of educational sessions offering continuing education credit, networking opportunities and the second year of the E2 style exhibition hall will highlight the event.
Hot topics at the educational sessions will include panels on how to improve staffing and workforce; hands-on clinical matters; better administration and financial management of communities; policy discussions and much more.
The first keynote speaker will be best-selling author and management expert Pat Lencioni, who the morning of Oct. 28 will offer practical advice for how to assemble, motivate, and sustain exceptional teams. Then, Cynt Marshall, president and CEO of the Dallas Mavericks, will take center stage on Tuesday (Oct. 29) to discuss how to lead authentically and nurture talent in ways that are beneficial to an organization and align with its mission.
In addition to the more than 150 educational sessions, two keynotes and other activities, the annual meeting also offers special programs for certain groups of annual meeting attendees. Available will be dedicated opportunities for Leaders of Color Network, CEOs of multisite organizations (CEMOs), New CEOs, and Board Members.
The exhibition hall, E2 (“Not a trade show. An experience.”) will once again comprise seven learning communities with more than 400 interactive exhibits delivering hands-on experiences of life-changing products and services. Eateries, community lounges and interactive content allow attendees to explore solutions across the aging services field. It will be open from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. both Monday and Tuesday.
