Upcoming Event MedtechASCEND: Creating Solutions for Dysfunctional Boards Wednesday, October 7, 2026 A Virtual Event Description: What happens when smart, accomplished people get into a boardroom and things still do not work? Board dysfunction is not always dramatic. Sometimes it is a dominant voice that shuts down discussion. A difficult relationship between the CEO and the board. Decisions that never quite get made. Unclear roles, competing agendas, lack of trust, or conversations everyone knows need to happen, but no one wants to start. And these dynamics are not unique to boards. They are leadership challenges that show up throughout organizations. Join MedtechWOMEN virtually for MedtechASCEND: Creating Solutions for Dysfunctional Boards, a candid and practical conversation moderated by Liz Rockett about recognizing unproductive dynamics and, more importantly, what effective leaders can do to change them. We will explore how to navigate difficult personalities and conversations, build trust and accountability, challenge constructively, strengthen relationships between leadership and the board, and help move a group from friction toward better decision-making. You do not need to currently serve on a board to benefit from this conversation. If you lead teams, interact with senior leadership or boards, aspire to board service, or simply want to become more effective at navigating complex leadership dynamics, there will be something here for you. Great boards do not happen simply because great people are sitting around the table. Come learn what helps make them work.
