Inspired Leadership

Christian leadership in nursing practice: a day conference for nurses, midwives and students

26 October 2013, St Mark's Church, Gabalfa, Cardiff

The quality of leadership in a nursing or midwifery team profoundly influences patient care, team morale and the future development of team members. Recent scandals highlight the devastating impact of poor leadership on care delivered to patients. Quality example, supervision, good management and interpersonal skills are essential in an effective leader. Today leadership if often seen as being about power and status, knowledge and control. The Biblical understanding of leadership offers a refreshing and challenging alternative vision. The Christian nurse/midwife has something special to bring to their leadership as a consequence. This day conference sets out to envision those who are seeking to develop a godly framework for their work. This is relevant at every level, from students preparing for a career in nursing or midwifery, to the senior nurse or midwife, and at every point in between. There will be inspiration, refreshment and a chance to exchange experiences and learning.

Integrated

The Bible in professional life, a day conference.
Saturday 8 June 2013 
All Souls Langham Place

• A conference to inspire, stretch and challenge
• A change to network with others in similar professional fields
• A call to integrate God's Word deeply into every aspect of our working lives

With Bible teaching by Mark O'Donaghue and Chris Wright, and networking workshops for Christians in professions as diverse as law, teaching, medicine, midwifery and nursing, this will be an excellent opportunity for Christian nurses to explore further how our faith shapes and informs our working lives, and to meet with other Christians working in nursing, midwifery, and other aspects of healthcare.

National Students Conference

CNM is sad to announce that we have had to cancel our conference 15-17 February 2013 at King's Park Conference Centre, Northampton, due to insufficient bookings.

We are planning to run other events in the coming year in London and Cardiff, and we will be releasing more details very shortly. We also hope to get the same speaker to share on the same passages some time in the autumn.

Watch this space for more information in the coming weeks.
