This interactive training provides the knowledge needed to help nurses develop adaptive leadership skills while practicing cultural humility and providing compassionate, ethical care. Participants will explore how patients’ cultures, beliefs, and life circumstances influence care, reflect on their own assumptions and biases, and practice strategies to navigate challenges in complex healthcare systems. Through case scenarios and guided reflection, nurses will strengthen their knowledge to be better able to collaborate with patients, families, and communities respectfully and inclusively.
Outcome 1: Explain adaptive leadership and why it matters in providing compassionate care in diverse and complex healthcare settings.
Outcome 2: Self-reflect on assumptions, biases, and cultural beliefs and discuss how these can affect patient care.
Outcome 3: Describe how adaptive leadership skills can be used to address challenges and provide ethical, fair, and inclusive care while partnering with patients, families, and communities.

Registration is required.
