The University of Phoenix is organizing a webinar titled "From Nursing to Leadership: Strategies for Transitioning into Management Roles" on April 28, 2025, at 2:00 pm EST. This online event is part of the University's initiatives through its Workforce Solutions team and is available at no cost to the public.
The session will include a panel discussion with established leaders in healthcare and education sharing valuable strategies for transitioning into leadership roles from clinical positions. Participants will receive guidance on acquiring skills necessary for leadership and insights into tackling daily challenges in healthcare settings.
Dr. Patrick LaRose, Associate Dean for the College of Nursing at the University of Phoenix, expressed the significance of the event: “Leading in healthcare has many different challenges and opportunities. It is crucial for healthcare professionals to leverage their skills, knowledge, and experience as they assume leadership roles. This webinar aims to empower healthcare workers with the tools they need to lead effectively and make a positive impact in their organizations.”
The University of Phoenix Career Institute's Fifth-Annual Career Optimism Index for 2025 revealed that one in four American workers feels their career progress is beyond their control, and a lack of advancement can increase burnout risk by 52%. The report suggests that offering career development opportunities is a key approach for employers aiming to restore a sense of control to their staff.
The webinar will offer actionable strategies aimed at managing team dynamics, resolving conflicts, and fostering a supportive work environment. It will focus on transitioning from clinical duties to managerial functions, enhancing leadership and communication skills, and accessing resources for professional growth.
The featured speakers for the event include Joanelle Adajar from Kaiser Permanente, Bryan Bates of Banner Casa Grande, Dr. Patrick LaRose from the University of Phoenix, and Jason Wright from The CEO Group.
