Entrepreneur Peer Group

Top 3 Reasons to Attend:

  1. Problem Solving:
    In sessions, you will be invited to present roadblocks, challenges, business questions, or opportunities to the group. In return, your peer members will provide feedback, solutions, recommendations, and problem-solving. In other words, the group becomes a temporary set of champions, advisors, and friends to help you launch, grow, or propel your business to the next milestone.
  2. Support:
    Let’s face it—being an entrepreneur can be lonely at the top. The truth is, there are some topics you either don’t want to, or shouldn’t, discuss with your staff or team. Peer groups build supportive communities and create a safe space to talk about your business with others who truly understand.
  3. Networking:
    The healthcare IT industry is small but packed with competitive vendors and consulting firms. In these small groups, we can cut through the noise and focus on the strengths you and your peers bring to the table. Together, we network, collaborate, and help build each other up!

Emerging Leaders Peer Group

Top 3 Reasons to Attend:

  1. Insightful Support You Can Trust: Leadership can be lonely, especially when you’re carrying the weight of critical decisions. In this group, you’ll find a circle of peers who “get it”—women navigating the same challenges and pressures you face. They’ll celebrate your wins, offer perspective on your struggles, and provide an empathetic yet honest sounding board when you need it most. It’s a safe, confidential space to be seen and supported as the leader you are.
  2. A Mirror for Growth: Sometimes, it takes others to reflect back what we can’t see in ourselves. Your peers in this group will act as that mirror—highlighting your strengths, talents, and accomplishments while also identifying potential blind spots. This honest feedback helps you avoid landmines that could derail your progress or dead ends that waste your time. It’s constructive accountability with an abundance of encouragement.
  3. A Network of Empowered Leaders: Women in clinical IT often feel like they’re paving the way alone. This group fosters a community of trailblazers, helping each other tackle challenges and seize opportunities. Together, you’ll build connections that empower you to lead boldly, innovate effectively, and inspire the next generation of leaders.
