title: The Magnet view: celebrating the Magnet way.
abstract: The Annual ANCC Magnet Conferences provide an atmosphere of learning, celebration, and recognition. At the 11th Annual Conference in 2007, those attending could choose from a variety of programs, visit exhibits, watch film clips from different organizations, view art displays, connect with 4,700 others and most of all, celebrate. Capturing the culture of this celebration and channeling the energy of nurses into creating solutions and a new view of nursing are vital to our recruitment and retention efforts.
