Feedback from the 2024 Leadership Forum

  • I found exposure to so many APP colleagues from around the country experiencing similar challenges was something I had not expected. This exposure allows me to feel less ‘alone’ knowing I can reach out to these new-found contacts to constructively discuss universal challenges.
  • I was extremely impressed with the forum as a whole, learned a great deal that I am going to bring back to my practice and also was able to connect/network with some great leaders in the field as well.
  • It was a wonderful area to discuss problems that are shared by other institutions and brainstorm on solutions.
  • The APP Leadership Forum was outstanding. The APP leaders were dynamic and resourceful. Really appreciated the engagement of the audience by the presenters particularly “The Practice Pitch” exercise by Todd Pickard during Communicating With the C-Suite presentation. Overall, it is one of the best leadership conferences I have been to!
  • I am thankful for the opportunity to learn from other APP leadership in oncology. The supportive environment allowed for honest conversation, and I have some great ideas to take back to my team and leadership.
  • This was a great engagement activity to learn from advanced practice oncology leaders across the country. Loved the interactive experience!
  • The APP leadership forum was a fantastic opportunity to network and learn from other leaders in my field. It gave a new sense of purpose to my leadership journey and inspired lots of potential changes in current practice.
  • This was an excellent conference with a lot of opportunities for networking, which I find so helpful for APPs. I would highly recommend this conference to my colleagues and hope to attend again in the future!
  • Excellent opportunity to meet with other APPs. I made connections that I have not been able to make at other conferences due to the size and structure of the meeting. Loved the interactive format.
  • One of the most valuable things about this forum was connection with my peer group. I am 1 of only 2 APP leaders in oncology at my institution, so sharing experiences and challenges and learning from other leaders was invaluable.

Industry Employee - $400+

Defined as anyone employed by a drug, device, or diagnostic company. The primary goal of the conference is to educate practicing clinicians on the latest advances and strategies in the care of cancer patients. Because space is limited and to ensure sufficient seats are available for clinicians, Industry Employees may register as an attendee only if you have a clinical title (NP, PharmD, MD, PA, etc).
