ANI Emerging Leaders

ANI will select two individuals to participate in the program. Components of the program include:

  • Attendance at the ANI Governing Director meetings (twice annually in conjunction with HIMSS and AMIA's annual conference) and one virtual town hall.
  • Participation at the AMIA Annual Symposium and the HIMSS Annual Conference.
  • Completion of a leadership project.

The selected individuals are paired with a mentor for dialogue and coaching during the two-year program. Mentors are selected by a sub-set of the ANI Governing Directors based on the proposed leadership project and will provide feedback and guidance throughout the program.
