Back in July I had the pleasure of meeting Donna Wright at the NNSDO (National Nurse Staff Development Organization) conference. Donna wrote “The Ultimate Guide to Competency Assessment in Healthcare” and is a well known consultant and expert in the field. As a former nurse, she knows first hand the challenges of the job and the common pitfalls healthcare facilities fall into when conducting competency assessments, as well as the consequences of an ineffective or inefficient process. She’s also a very warm, funny person, who helps you laugh at yourself.

We were so impressed with Donna we decided to invite her to give a webinar on competency assessments. She believes that there are three elements to a successful competency assessment process:

• Collaboratively identified competencies that reflect the dynamic nature of work
• Employee centered verification
• A leader-created culture of success that focuses on the organization and supports positive employee behavior

On December 8th, Donna will take a real but humorous look at the madness we create through ineffective approaches to competency assessment, and teach you how to design a system that is more meaningful, manageable, and even a little fun! Join us for this inspirational discussion about competency assessments. You’ll be glad you did! You can register for this webinar here.
