Presentations and workshops

Whether you're looking for topical presentations or dedicated focus on a challenge or initiative, our expert support gives you access to healthcare experts in different ways to match your time and needs. Learn more.

Equip your sales team to understand the broader industry
  • State of the healthcare industry | Presentation
    Discuss the market forces leaders should watch and the strategic bets to navigate the industry’s future structure.

  • Navigating AI in healthcare | Presentation
    Equip your leaders with an understanding of artificial intelligence (AI), the potential benefits these technologies offer, the unique challenges AI presents in healthcare, and how organizations, leaders, and teams should respond to AI today.

Practice your pitch
  • Refine your sales pitch | Workshop
    Engage in a role play exercise with our experts to review and constructively critique your sales pitch from the perspective of the target customer. Review includes feedback from a panel of Advisory Board experts, including suggested improvements on overall pitch and product messaging.
Speak the language of your customers
  • How will health systems grow in 2025? | Presentation
    You know you need to grow in 2025 — but how? In this presentation, we’ll discuss how structural dynamics are impacting volumes, how your peers are approaching growth (and what we think market-leading performance looks like), and the changes needed to sustain (and accelerate) your growth ambitions in 2025 and beyond.

  • Playbook for reducing LOS: Lessons from provider peers | Presentation
    You keep hearing that patients are sicker, staffing levels are insufficient, and post-acute closures are driving up length of stay. But how much of this is true? And what kind of return could you unlock if you addressed these factors? Chasing solutions to those problems will be costly and you’ll be up against established market players. Instead, join us as we reveal our playbook for reducing length of stay and optimizing patient flow — tactics we know will have an immediate impact and be worth the investment.
