THINK TANK: Workforce Supply, Retention & Burnout: Holding the Line

Staffing shortages and burnout continue to destabilize care delivery. Compensation can only go so far—structural factors like workload clarity, decision latitude, and peer support are equally critical. New tools such as AI-driven scheduling help, but long-term resilience will come from cultural and organizational shifts that normalize recovery and protect staff capacity.

This Session Will Examine:

• Why compensation alone cannot solve retention in clinical roles.
• The overlooked drivers of burnout: workload clarity, decision latitude, peer support.
• How AI-enabled staffing and scheduling tools can ease supply-demand mismatch.
• Building resilience cultures where recovery is normalized, not stigmatized.
• Sustaining pipelines when demand outpaces traditional training models.
