About the Cohort

The Hospital Workforce Leaders Cohort is an opportunity for talent and culture leaders at health centers and hospital systems to join an action-oriented program focused on:

• Attracting, retaining and promoting frontline and entry-level workers
• Building high-performing teams
• Creating inclusive workplace cultures

This program helps hospital workforce leaders implement effective strategies that build stronger teams and ultimately improve care outcomes. Through live learning sessions and a supplemental eLearning journey, you will:

• Assess your organizational data to understand the workforce challenge and opportunity.
• Architect an initiative to implement while refining your stakeholder engagement strategy.
• Act with confidence by addressing implementation barriers before they happen.

What You’ll Tackle

Leaders will receive support to address key workforce challenges, including:

• Workforce shortages: Healthcare roles are increasingly difficult to fill, particularly in rural areas — creating heavier workloads and lower job quality for existing staff.
• Employee burnout: Dissatisfaction and burnout drive talented staff out of the healthcare industry, leading to costly turnover and added strain on remaining team members.
• Impacted patient care: Chronic understaffing and turnover can harm patient care, causing longer wait times, rushed visits and a higher risk of errors.

Our Spring 2026 Hospital Workforce Leader Cohort identified key trends and potential solutions to these common workforce challenges, captured in this blog, “From the Field: Hospital Workforce Leaders on What’s Working.”
