CHICAGO, June 26, 2023 (VSNewsNetwork.com) - Have Your Voice Heard, an innovative educational initiative, has recently launched with the aim of empowering women in the healthcare sector. This membership program is specifically designed to enhance the communication and executive presence skills of female doctors, healthcare workers, and women in related sciences, ultimately leading to improved patient care and outcomes.
A study published in JAMA in 2021 revealed that patients treated by female physicians have lower death rates. However, women currently hold only 25% of healthcare leadership positions worldwide. To address this disparity and make a positive impact on patient outcomes, Have Your Voice Heard was created.
Catering to female doctors and women working in healthcare and basic sciences, the program offers virtual coursework, networking opportunities, and one-on-one coaching. Participants will receive training and tools to improve their executive presence, gain confidence, enhance their communication skills, and effectively advocate for their ideas and perspectives.
Kathryn Janicek, the founder of Have Your Voice Heard, explained the purpose behind the program, stating, "We created this program to help more female leaders in healthcare have their voice heard so fewer patients get lost in the system, receive misdiagnoses, or die from either preventable diseases or in childbirth." She emphasized that members will receive the necessary training, tools, and a supportive community to confidently lead their teams and advocate for their patients, whether in a lab, bedside, or operating room.
Have Your Voice Heard is open to female and female-identifying healthcare professionals at all stages of their careers, with a monthly fee of $97 and no long-term commitments required. Students currently enrolled in school will receive a 50% discount on the program fee. The initiative aims to partner with hospitals, healthcare networks, universities, and medical associations across the nation to ensure the accessibility of its curriculum.
The program was developed and is taught by Kathryn Janicek, an Emmy-winning media trainer and public speaker who coaches healthcare leaders and Fortune 500 executives through her company, Kathryn Janicek Productions. With experience training professionals from prestigious organizations such as the American Dental Association and leading hospitals like Harvard and Mayo Clinic, Kathryn brings a wealth of expertise to empower women in healthcare.
