Center for Healthcare Governance

Winter Symposium 2014

Overview

The Center for Healthcare Governance presents its winter Symposium on leading and governing health care organizations. In this three-day program, trustees and executive leadership will gain insights into the trends that are transforming the delivery system and learn strategies and tools for navigating an increasingly complex environment.

In plenary sessions, industry experts will offer analyses of the contextual issues framing the health care environment—from the strategic questions critical to transformation of the delivery system, to the efforts of leaders to provide safe, equitable care, to new imperatives to engage clinicians in clinical integration, and the need to assume greater risk for the care of a population. In small group, interactive sessions, we’ll focus on innovative approaches for leveraging the benefits of system participation, and hone governance performance in such areas as enterprise risk management, utilizing philanthrophy as a strategic asset, and improving transparency around cost and quality.

By attending the Symposium, the leaders of your organization will acquire the new knowledge and skills to manage the complexities of health care transformation. You will learn to ask the tough questions, gain valuable insights on how to get the most from your leadership teams, and build new levels of commitment.
