Meets in Savannah This October

Leadership Doesn’t Come With a Playbook. We Help You Build One.

Stepping into perioperative leadership is exciting…and overwhelming. Periop Leader Week, now uniting OR Manager Conference and OR Business Management Summit, equips new and emerging leaders with the foundational skills, business knowledge, and confidence needed to lead teams and drive results.

You don’t need to figure it out along. You need guidance from peers who’ve already walked this path.
