Hospital Leadership Think Tank: Break Through the Impossible in Healthcare BY INVITATION ONLY

Tanya’s career has been defined by innovation and scalability. She co-founded Treasure Coast Digital Health to accelerate modern solutions in remote monitoring, patient engagement, and practice transformation, and serves as U.S. Healthcare Advisor to Ultrahuman, a global leader in health technology. Her expertise extends internationally, where she has built networks and programs that improved the health and well-being of underserved communities in the United States, Eastern Europe, Africa, and beyond.

Early in her career, Tanya helped launch the first network of freestanding breast health centers in Pittsburgh with Magee-Womens Hospital and went on to establish more than 75 model women’s health education and primary care clinics worldwide through Magee-Womancare International and USAID. She later co-founded Spirit Health Network, a strategic marketing company that created sustainable networks of women’s specialty programs at hospitals across the United States. Through every initiative, Tanya has demonstrated her unique ability to align clinical providers, healthcare organizations, and technology around a unified mission.

At the Power of Nursing Leadership Think Tank in Scottsdale, Tanya will bring her trademark energy, expertise, and vision to illuminate how nurse leaders and hospital executives can create a new standard for protecting nurse energy. Her keynote will highlight innovative strategies, human-centered technology, and cultural shifts that move beyond simply telling nurses to be resilient—toward building systems that make thriving both possible and inevitable.

Her firestarter presentation, Lead Like a Nurse, will challenge outdated assumptions and spark a bold new vision for nursing leadership—one rooted not in what nurse leaders “should be,” but in what they can be when they lead with courage, authenticity, and clarity of purpose.

Today, Stephen continues to push the boundaries of innovation as CEO of SkinIO, Entrepreneur-in-Residence at Harvard Business School’s Rock Center for Entrepreneurship, and advisor, board member, and investor in more than 20 healthcare ventures.

In her firestarter session, AI, Human Flourishing, and an Engaged Nursing Community, Dr. Delbo will spark a bold conversation on how emerging technologies—AI, machine learning, and predictive analytics—can be paired with nursing’s heart-led leadership to reimagine education, care delivery, and community health. She will explore how nurses can leverage both compassion and innovation to build equitable, engaged, and flourishing systems that are sustainable for generations to come.

Dr. Delbo believes nurses are not just participants in healthcare transformation—they are the leaders who will break through the impossible, integrating technology and humanity to shape the future of flourishing health.

With a distinguished career spanning major healthcare innovation organizations, including Cancer Treatment Centers of America, Chris has advanced models where the well-being of both patient and caregiver are elevated as inseparable priorities.
