CAPC Fireside Chat: Leading Through Change and Uncertainty in Palliative Care

January 14, 2026 | 15:00-16:00 EST

Periods of organizational or environmental change can test even the most experienced leaders. Whether adapting to new business directions, policy shifts, or evolving care models, leaders play a vital role in helping teams remain steady, motivated, and aligned with their shared purpose.

In this fireside chat, national leaders from CAPC, AAHPM, HPNA, and the Ichan School of Medicine at Mount Sinai will reflect on how palliative care leaders can stay grounded and effective during times of uncertainty—maintaining clarity, confidence, and compassion while advancing the field. Attendees will explore strategies to sustain team morale and well-being, foster collaboration across disciplines, and keep equity, quality, and patient-centered care at the heart of their work. The discussion will also highlight emerging opportunities for innovation, research, and shared leadership as palliative care continues to evolve within a changing health care landscape.
