Your brand is more than your organization’s logo and tagline; it’s aligning what you want people to think about your company with what people actually think of your company.1 Nurses desire more than a paycheck. They are looking for fulfillment, leadership opportunities, the best technology/tools available, recognition and more. Your brand, which is a culmination of all of the interactions with your organization, will show nurses what to expect from your organization more than an ad or job description. Good... Read More
