Convince the Boss

Are you ready to register for the 2024 AWHONN Convention but still need to convince your boss? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered!  Check out our five ways to make your business case to attend and use the Justification Letter template to get the ball rolling.

Step 1

Provide concrete examples of how your experience will positively impact your day-to-day work. With specialized education, you can customize your curriculum to help solve workplace challenges. For example, is your team struggling with adopting practices to provide equitable and inclusive care? Highlight the sessions that cover diversity, equity, and inclusion. Are you an early career professional and can use all the content possible to help you establish a leadership role on your team? Check out our early career content and share that with your boss.

Step 2

Flag the contacts you will make at Convention to advance your organization’s goals. The Expo hall will host solution providers, showcasing a wide range of innovative health care-related products to help your team effectively care for your patients.

Step 3

Emphasize the impact of connecting directly with your community, and how learning from shared experiences can bring value to your role, expand on your understanding of best practices, and recharge your batteries.

Step 4

Put your business case in writing. Use our handy Justification Letter template to help your boss understand why the 2024 AWHONN Convention is the most valuable conference for you to attend. Customize this based on your specific goals and how you will make a return on investment (of both time and money!). Consider committing to a post-conference briefing for staff, senior management, or your team, where you’ll highlight what you’ve learned from the conference.
