Nurse-to-Nurse: Communication Diversity and Bridging the Gap is a two-day conference for practicing nurses, nurse leaders and educators that will provide a forum for understanding personal communication styles and how they affect cultural and generational interactions.

The event will also include specialty-specific breakout sessions and a keynote presentation by leadership development expert Kimberly Malloy, who will discuss how understanding and accepting diverse communication styles can lead to a more stable and successful work environment.
