Register for ACS Leadership & Advocacy Summit

Registration is now open for the ACS Leadership & Advocacy Summit, which will be held February 28–March 3 at the Grand Hyatt Washington, DC Hotel. 

This in-person-only event is designed for ACS members, leaders, and advocates to develop essential leadership skills and advocacy strategies. Dynamic sessions and interactive workshops will provide tools to strengthen leadership capabilities, advance healthcare policy, and influence the future of surgery. 

The Leadership Summit will begin on Saturday afternoon, February 28, with educational workshops on Making the Most of Your Communications Opportunities and Building Your Leadership Brand to Increase Impact (each workshop has a separate additional fee). 

On Sunday, March 1, the Leadership Summit will showcase compelling speakers addressing key themes in surgical leadership. Attendees will be exposed to new and innovative ways to face challenges and enhance their leadership skills in all settings.

That evening, the Advocacy Summit kicks off with a Welcome Reception and Keynote Dinner. On Monday and Tuesday, March 2–3, expert panelists will discuss ACS-supported advocacy priorities and how surgeons can play a role in future healthcare transformation. Advocacy training and scheduled congressional visits will enable attendees to put their advocacy skills to work. 

The Advocacy Summit is open only to US citizens and residents who are ACS members.
