| | Nurses rocking business in Las Vegas this past week at NNBA’s signature educational conference on Nurse Entrepreneurship & Career Alternatives! The power of yes resonated throughout this conference after Joan Sullivan Garrett’s powerful opening keynote address. Joan Sullivan Garrett is the Founder and Chairman of MedAire, the world’s largest integrated aviation and maritime provider of medical, travel, and safety services. Joan’s story of how one young life impacted her in starting MedAire is extraordinary. Later in Joan’s presentation we were riveted to our seats as we listened to an actual emergency in the skies that resulted saved lives of an infant and mother. Many nurses purchased Joan’s book and we benefited from her engaging with us throughout the day.
|
| | Everyone enjoys our meet and greet reception. The camaraderie, networking, and building relationships begins. Relationships that many nurses will have the rest of their lives.
|
| | A couple hundred nurses from everywhere in the United States and nurses joined us from Canada, Australia, and Ireland. The enthusiasm and positivity were palpable!
|
| | | All of our speakers did a wonderful job educating while entertaining us with the latest information on: home healthcare and the entrepreneurial options available to NPs and RNs, the power of video for our business, life care management opportunities, moving beyond the fear of failure, eliminating money blocks, integrative nurse coaching trends, developing an education and consulting business, and how to turn your 60 minute presentation into a 6 figure business! Plus nurses arrived early to attend the in-depth workshops focused on Marketing, Holding Retreats, Diversified Income Streams and Eldercare
Speaker's pictures will be coming soon and so many are already posted in social media using hashtag #NNBA2022.
