Organization of Nurse Leaders

ONL is a not-for-profit membership organization empowering current and aspiring nurse leaders ONL began as MSNSA in 1976.

In 1985 the name was changed to MONE (Massachusetts Organization of Nurse Executives). In June of 2011, our new name, ONL was approved to more accurately reflect nurses' vital role as clinical leaders. Today ONL represents over 700 nursing leaders from diverse practices across the Commonwealth. Our members employ, manage, and influence in excess of 40,000 nurses and health care workers. Additional

ly, they administer operating budgets of over $1 billion annually. The mission of the Organization is to provide direction and leadership for the advancement of professional nursing and patient care and for the achievement of excellence in nursing management practice. ONL is an affiliate of the American Organization of Nurse Executives.

Nurse leaders are being asked to do more than ever—support teams, manage day-to-day operations, drive change, contribute to strategy, and somehow find time for the work that matters most. How do you manage it all without constantly operating in reactive mode?

→ Manage competing priorities more effectively
→ Create systems and routines that make your workload more manageable
→ Protect time for strategic and high-value work
→ Move from reactive to more intentional leadership
→ Build sustainable habits that support productivity, resilience, and well-being

📅 Wednesday, October 14 | 9:30 AM–12:00 PM ET | Zoom
🎓 2.5 Contact Hours

Please join us in welcoming Nadia Raymond, Ph.D, MSN/MHA, RN, as the 2026–2027 President of the Organization of Nurse Leaders – New England.

In her welcome message to our community, Nadia reflects on the people who shape us as leaders and invites each of us to embrace the Three Cs of Influence—leading with credibility, clarity, and care. Her message is a reminder that leadership is built through the trust we earn, the opportunities we create, and the way we help others grow.

Nadia closes her message with a powerful reminder: when your "why" is bigger than your fear, your leadership creates space for others to discover their own influence.

We invite you to read her full welcome message and join us in celebrating the beginning of this exciting new chapter for ONL. We look forward to all we will accomplish together!
