Tait Shanafelt, MD, Keynotes the 2022 Leadership Development Conference

As if welcoming our members back to the shores of Lake Chelan for our traditional in-person annual leadership conference isn't enough, the WSMA is truly pleased to introduce to attendees a remarkable keynote presenter in Tait Shanafelt, MD, the chief wellness officer, associate dean, and Jeanie and Stewart Richie Professor of Medicine at Stanford University.

Dr. Shanafelt is an international thought leader and researcher in the field of physician well-being and its implications for quality of care. In his Thomas J. Curry Leadership Keynote Address "Physician Well-being 2.0: Where Are We and Where Are We Going," Dr. Shanafelt will share with conference attendees the key characteristics and mindset of his "Well-being 2.0" framework and help leaders accelerate the transition from Well-being 1.0 to Well-being 2.0 thinking. Participants will learn how to transition from awareness and insight to authentic action with a focus on physicians as humans.

Dr. Shanafelt's keynote address will kick off the 2022 Leadership Development Conference, which, as it does each year, will feature top-notch faculty and engaging course content together with interactive sessions designed to enhance your leadership skills-all in an environment with COVID-19 precautions firmly in place to ensure your safety. And with a return to an in-person conference, attendees will be able to enjoy Campbell's Resort's family-friendly, beautiful lakeside setting and amenities.
