Successful Women's Series: BE BOLD-Advocating for the Future of Women's Health

February 19, 2026 11:30 AM - 1:00 PM (CST)

Description

Step into a bold new era of women's healthcare! This session empowers women to advocate for themselves and for women's health more broadly. You'll explore the shocking history of women's healthcare, understand the gaps that have long existed, and discover why now is one of the most exciting times for innovation and progress. Business leaders and healthcare consumers alike will gain practical insights into how health plans and policy shape outcomes—and how you can take action today.

Takeaways:

  • A complete, decade-by-decade guide to preventive healthcare for women, all in one place.
  • Insights into how historical underrepresentation and underfunding have shaped women's healthcare—and how new innovations are closing these gaps.
  • Practical strategies for becoming a passionate advocate for your health and the health of women in your community and workplace.


About Marjorie Erdmann, PhD, MS: Marjorie Erdmann, PhD, MS currently teaches in Oklahoma State University’s School of Health Care Administration doctoral program. She received a master’s in human relations and child development from OSU in 1993. She received her PhD in Business Administration from OSU in 2022. She is focused on the future of health and healthcare. Her dissertation research discovered bases for human trust in AI, helping to illuminate how AI will transform workforces.

Marjorie was the Director of Oklahoma State University’s Center for Health Systems Innovation for eleven years (2014-2025). She led her team in tackling our biggest healthcare challenges such as access to care in rural areas, mental healthcare, smoking cessation, patient engagement, the nursing shortage, hospital safety, care efficiency, poor outcomes, and ER crowding. Marjorie’s solutions have been published by leading healthcare organizations such as the American Medical Association and the Association of American Medical Colleges.

Prior to joining CHSI in 2014, she worked in the healthcare industry for 20 years, starting as a marriage and family therapist until embracing the business side of healthcare wherein she lead business development teams, negotiated insurance contracts, created provider networks, consulted and more. She has worked for large pharmaceutical companies and small start-ups. 

During those 20 years, she launched some of Oklahoma’s first integrated mental healthcare and telehealth programs. She continues to create novel access to mental healthcare. 

Her new new targets are some of the largest gaps in healthcare - women’s health and mental wellbeing. Both of these have been on the decline in the United States. She has a mission to inspire people to advocate for equity, to support innovation and to take bold, empowered actions for their own health.
