Elevate 2025: Redefining the Conference Experience for Linen and Laundry Leaders

Are you ready for a conference experience that truly moves the needle on industry challenges and offers actionable insights? Enter Elevate 2025, the newest event by the Association for Linen Management (ALM), set to premiere at the Margaritaville Resort in Nashville, Tennessee, from March 17–19, 2025. But don’t expect the standard conference format. Elevate is built for linen and laundry leaders who are ready to roll up their sleeves and dive into real-world problem-solving.

Why Elevate is Different

Traditional conferences are often structured around lectures, keynote sessions and passive presentations. Elevate flips the script. It’s designed for Laundry Operations Managers, Linen Managers, Production Managers, and other industry leaders who want a hands-on approach to learning that addresses their daily challenges. Participants will work through actual scenarios, troubleshoot operational inefficiencies and take part in immersive activities that bring new insights to light.

Participants will either select the laundry operations or the linen management track, where they’ll work through actual scenarios, troubleshoot operational inefficiencies, and take part in immersive activities that bring new insights to light. Instead of sitting back and taking notes, attendees will actively engage in workshops that simulate the complexities of linen management and laundry operations. Through these interactive sessions, Elevate brings a new layer of practical learning by requiring participants to evaluate data, apply process improvement methodologies, and develop solutions for typical issues encountered in the industry. The goal? For you to leave with a deeper skillset, practical tools and a game plan ready to implement at your own operation.

Practical Learning: Real-World Scenarios and Hands-On Activities

A core part of Elevate is using real-world scenarios to pinpoint areas for improvement and develop immediate solutions. Imagine working through a scenario that challenges you to troubleshoot linen shortages or optimize delivery schedules. You’ll analyze data and identify opportunities for greater efficiency and quality control, all while working with peers who bring their own insights and experiences to the table.

By emphasizing hands-on activities, Elevate also offers practical exercises in process improvement methodology. Participants will engage in workshops that require critical thinking, data-driven decision-making and collaboration—all essential skills for today’s leaders in linen and laundry operations. You’ll learn to view linen management through the lens of continuous improvement, focusing not just on solving problems but also on preventing them.

Engaging Hospital Staff and Administration for System-Wide Success

At Elevate, you’ll explore strategies for collaborating with hospital staff and administration to promote efficient linen usage and flow. Workshops will provide tools to help you engage other departments in initiatives that improve linen handling, minimize waste and ensure smooth linen flow from the laundry facility to patient rooms.

Participants will learn communication techniques and engagement strategies that bridge the gap between laundry operations and the end-users of linens. By fostering collaboration with clinical staff, hospital administrators and other key stakeholders, you’ll be better equipped to implement changes that benefit the entire organization.

Gain New Skills and Boost Operational Efficiency

At Elevate, you won’t just discuss high-level concepts—you’ll practice applying new techniques to common challenges. From evaluating production data to implementing productivity improvements, Elevate’s sessions offer tangible, real-world applications that you can bring back to your operation.

These workshops will cover everything from advanced productivity techniques to innovative ideas in linen management, helping you streamline processes and maximize your resources. By focusing on operational efficiency, Elevate prepares you to meet the demands of a fast-paced environment, with tools that will make a measurable impact on your organization.

A Unique Networking Opportunity

Elevate isn’t just about learning; it’s also about building a community of like-minded professionals who are passionate about elevating the industry. Throughout the event, you’ll have opportunities to network with peers, exchange ideas, and develop valuable connections. With a focus on collaboration, Elevate allows you to tap into the collective knowledge of industry experts and peers who are tackling the same challenges you face.

This sense of camaraderie and shared purpose enhances the learning experience, making it easy to return home not only with new skills but also with a support network of industry colleagues who can offer insights and advice long after the event is over.
