This year’s Fall Conference offers an exceptional opportunity to strengthen your leadership skills while connecting with peers who understand the challenges facing senior care today. In the morning, engage with experienced facilitators from Steel Built Leadership Solutions as they lead you through an interactive leadership workshop designed specifically for senior care leaders navigating workforce demands, operational complexity, and increasing expectations. Through practical tools, guided discussion, and hands-on applications, you will gain strategies to lead with confidence, improve team engagement, strengthen problem-solving skills, and build sustainable leadership practices.
The conference value continues throughout the afternoon with a networking lunch & expo featuring senior care vendors, our bi-annual LeadingAge Kansas business meeting, and a Gubernatorial and Statewide Candidate Forum and Reception. This unique event provides attendees with direct access to candidates seeking statewide office, creating meaningful opportunities to learn about key issues impacting our profession and share your perspectives. Whether you’re looking to expand your professional network, stay informed on policy developments, or help shape the future of senior care, this conference delivers valuable connections and insights that make attendance a must.
Register today and be part of the conversations that will influence both your leadership journey and the future of our aging services.
