Winning the Talent Battle: How to Build a Magnetic Brand

In today’s healthcare landscape, candidates evaluate employers the same way they evaluate hotels, restaurants, and service providers. They form strong impressions long before speaking with a recruiter, and those impressions determine whether they apply, respond, or stay engaged. Rural and community hospitals face unique challenges in this environment, often competing against larger systems with bigger budgets and broader brand visibility.

This insight-packed session will show healthcare recruiters, talent acquisition leaders, and HR teams how to build a magnetic employer brand—without needing a large marketing team. Attendees will learn how to assess their digital first impression across Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, and job boards; how to translate culture and recognition into compelling content; how to identify the right talent audience; and how to build a realistic, sustainable posting strategy that highlights their strengths, values, and mission.

Participants will walk away with practical, ready-to-use tools, including a digital audit checklist, content ideas they can implement immediately, and a clear framework for strengthening their organization’s brand to attract and retain top healthcare talent.

In this session, you will learn how to:

• Evaluate their facility’s digital first impression and identify factors shaping candidate perception.

• Apply the core principles of an effective employer brand across digital platforms.
• Implement recognition-based content practices that attract talent and support retention.
• Map their target talent audience and craft message themes that align with ideal candidate motivations.
• Develop a sustainable content and posting strategy to maintain a consistent employer brand online.

The Retention Crisis Hiding in Your Leadership Pipeline: Why Healthcare Organizations Keep Losing Good People And the 3 Leadership Moments That Change Everything

Here’s what no one’s saying out loud: your retention problem isn’t a compensation problem. It’s a leadership problem.

New research reveals that 80% of organizations recognize they need a fundamentally different approach to leadership development, yet most are still running the same episodic programs that 63% admit aren’t working. Meanwhile, 76% of employees say mentorship matters, but only 6% have ever had a mentor. The gap between what leaders need and what they’re getting is where your best people quietly decide to leave.

Join Lisa Rigoli, CEO of Element of Change, who last year shared the complete restructuring roadmap at the NAHCR annual conference, for a 60-minute session that connects the latest workforce research to what’s happening inside your organization right now.

Drawing on insights from research and real-world case studies, Lisa will show you why the organizations with the lowest turnover aren’t the ones with the biggest budgets—they’re the ones that redesigned leadership around the specific moments where people decide to stay or go.

You’ll walk away with:

• The 3 critical “moments that matter” in the healthcare employee journey where leadership behavior drives retention or resignation
• A diagnostic framework to assess where your leaders are equipped vs. where they’re quietly failing your people
• The research-backed case for why mentorship training, not more programs, is the highest-ROI retention strategy most organizations are missing
• A practical take-home tool to map your own “moments that matter” and identify your biggest leadership gap this quarter

This session is for healthcare recruiting and HR leaders who are tired of fighting retention fires and ready to address the root cause.

Speaker Bio:

Lisa Rigoli is the CEO of Element of Change, the leadership transition firm organizations turn to when the stakes are highest—restructuring, mergers and acquisitions, rightsizing, AI adoption, and C-suite succession.

Before founding Element of Change, Lisa spent 15+ years leading workforce transformations from inside large organizations. When her own market of 5,000 employees was dissolved, she was asked to lead the transition, personally placing 42 of 50 displaced leaders using a systematic approach most organizations never see. That experience became the foundation of Element of Change.

Today, Element of Change partners with CHROs, CLOs, and senior leaders to build the coaching, mentorship training, and transition systems that keep their best people through change, not in spite of it. The firm's flagship, Leadership Reset™, is built on a 4-layer verification model that tracks retention, capability gain, manager-verified behavior change, and long-term sustainability. Element of Change doesn't just deliver programs—it proves they worked.
