SBNH Partnership: Winter 2022 Research Update

This winter, we are wrapping up the first cohort of the SBNH Leadership Program, and preparing to launch the second. We share details and updates as we celebrate this huge accomplishment and look forward to the next phase!

This winter saw the continued delivery of the first cohort of the Strengths-Based Nursing and Healthcare Leadership program, with the successful completion of the course modules in December. This cohort will culminate in a final celebration on March 25th, and has been a tremendous success, as evidenced by the participants' enthusiastic engagement as well as the results of the evaluation reports. Congratulations to the faculty, mentors, and participants!

Please find our Executive Committee update below, with short committee updates following.

Training Committee Update

With the first cohort of the SBNH-L Program nearing completion, the Training Committee is preparing for the final celebration and showcase of participants’ Capstone Change Projects, which will be held at the end of March. Work is now underway to prepare for the second cohort, which will launch mid-May. This includes building the cohort’s online space and meeting with faculty to support any revisions to their modules’ content or delivery. Recruitment is underway for several new mentors to join the existing team from cohort 1. Participant recruitment at our partner sites has launched.

Our heartfelt thanks to the cohort 1 mentors for their dedication and caring support of the participants’ learning and leadership journeys through a challenging fall and winter. We would also like to acknowledge the tremendous commitment of our faculty, all of whom are returning for cohort 2.
