This is another great opportunity for our ONL members!!

So many great ideas in nursing leadership never get published because the process of writing a journal article can seem daunting to new authors. We are thrilled to announce our next ONL Member Roundtable, "From Leader to Author: A Nurse Leader's Guide to Getting Your Work Published," which will be held virtually via Zoom on Wednesday, January 21st at 1:00 PM RT.

In this members-only session, Dr. Rose Sherman will demystify the publication process and provide practical tips and tools to help you become a published author in 2026.

This session is FREE for all ONL members! If you are already a member, please visit https://www.oonl.org/virtual-roundtables and login to register.

If you are not yet a member and would like to participate, join today! https://forms.zohopublic.com/astefancyk/form/RenewYourONLMembership/formperma/3XHCxXLyc81PbpAyxRfntVwMNdRoBYc38nwH3KzlJoU
