In 2007, the Health Research and Educational Trust (HRET), with funding from Russell Reynolds Associates and the Center for Healthcare Governance, convened a Blue Ribbon Panel comprised of chief executives and board members of hospitals and health care systems, governance researchers and consultants and others with expertise in leadership and governance. The panel identified and focused their deliberations on five areas they believed were critical to effective governance:
- Being an Accountable Board: Earning and Maintaining the Public’s Trust;
- Building and Sustaining a Proactive and Interactive Board Culture;
- Laying a Foundation for Effective Decision-Making: Board Meetings and Information for Governing;
- Focusing the Board on Key Governance Priorities; and
- Clarifying Authority and Responsibility: The Buck Stops Where?
The Center is proud to have participated in and to have helped fund the panel’s efforts. We know you will find the report a valuable resource in your board’s journey toward exceptional governance.
