Governance Essentials Complimentary Microportal

Board Succession Planning


Align board experience, expertise and diversity with your leadership needs.

Board composition should reflect the combination of experience, expertise and diversity needed to successfully govern in today’s complex and transforming healthcare environment. Board succession planning and recruitment are essential to strengthening board capacity, not just filling an empty seat on the board.

governWell™ resources will help you assess the skills, knowledge and required expertise of new trustees, aligning those capabilities with the board’s future governance needs. Selected resources from the recruitWell™ module are provided complimentary in this Governance Essentials microportal.
