Colleen had the privilege of being invited to Kazan, Russia to be the keynote presenter at their 5th International Conference 2018: WORLD-CLASS QUALITY STANDARDS - from ideas to practice. Colleen was joined by other U.S. leading healthcare enterprises including Mayo Clinic, Stanford Health Care, and Cleveland Clinic.

To best describe Colleen’s impact on the conference attendees, here was some feedback from Dinara Zakharova, their conference organizer,

“I've recently heard from one of AMTEC KAZAN faculty members who attended the conference, and she told that after the conference, as an experiment, she started asking the patients about their fears, and this is amazing! She was so excited as the patient's attitude had drastically changed! They are listening!”
