Compare your board’s structure and practices to those across the country
Hospital and health system boards of trustees face a broad range of leadership challenges, including but certainly not limited to the uncertainties of health care reform and delivery system transformation; ensuring high quality and a safe patient environment; building financial stability; envisioning and sustaining a sound strategic direction; growing board leadership through effective governance succession planning; and building vibrant and effective public trust and confidence. Boards of trustees will be successful in dealing with these issues if they understand the most critical components of governing leadership effectiveness, and successfully transform those practices into consistent governing leadership habits.
