The Dallas-Fort Worth Chapter of NAHSE, in partnership with Vituity, invites you to a powerful evening of leadership, storytelling, and connection.

Imamu “Mu” Tomlinson, MD, MBA, is a physician, CEO, and nationally recognized thought leader whose career bridges the front lines of emergency medicine and the boardrooms of healthcare innovation. As CEO of Vituity—one of America’s leading physician-led healthcare partnerships—Dr. Tomlinson leads teams delivering care to more than 12 million patients annually across hundreds of hospitals and clinics. He also serves as President of the Vituity Cares Foundation, advancing health equity and cultivating the next generation of diverse clinical leaders.

A first-generation college graduate and former athlete, Dr. Tomlinson’s journey from emergency physician to Chief of Staff and executive leader gives him a rare and authentic perspective on patient care, organizational strategy, and inclusive leadership. Told early in his career that he had less than a 1% chance of becoming a CEO, he defied expectations—and documented that journey in his book, Less Than 1%.

This in-person event will feature a keynote address from Dr. Tomlinson, followed by a book-signing opportunity and networking with healthcare professionals and leaders from across the DFW Metroplex.

What to Expect

  • A compelling keynote on leadership, resilience, and redefining what’s possible
  • Insights from a physician-executive who has navigated both bedside care and enterprise leadership
  • Reflections on health equity, representation, and purpose-driven leadership
  • A book-signing opportunity following the keynote
  • Meaningful networking with NAHSE members, healthcare leaders, and emerging professionals

Who Should Attend

  • Healthcare professionals and administrators at all career stages
  • Emerging and aspiring healthcare leaders
  • Physicians, executives, and managers seeking purpose-driven leadership insight
  • Students and early-career professionals exploring non-traditional leadership pathways
  • NAHSE members and non-members passionate about leadership, equity, and impact
