Grow Your Own: Creating a Culture That Develops Health Center Leaders

Thursday, August 27, 2026 | 2:00 PM Eastern Time

Health Centers cannot rely only on external recruitment to meet every leadership need. They must also recognize potential within their organizations and create the experience, support, and opportunities employees need to grow.

Strategy & Leadership

Developing leaders from within

In this moderated conversation, Beth Little-Terry, Director of Healthcare Compliance & Strategy at THRIVE and a former Health Center CEO, and Michelle Dixon, CRNP, Chief Executive Officer of Mountain Laurel Medical Center, will discuss what it takes to develop leaders from within.

Beth will share how she identified and supported emerging leaders, including Michelle, and brought in mentors, educators, and other experts to support their development. Michelle will discuss the people and experiences that shaped her progression through Mountain Laurel and how she now carries that same philosophy forward as CEO.

The discussion will explore how Grow Your Own can move beyond a single mentoring relationship and become part of a Health Center’s culture, leadership strategy, and approach to organizational continuity.
