Chapter Management Webinar
Our next chapter management webinar on June 19, Learn from Experience: Involve your Senior Level Healthcare Executives, will have a new twist on our normal format. Instead of hearing from chapters who have organized programs to engage senior-level executives, you will learn from a panel of former Regents and Governors: Heather J. Rohan, FACHE, CEO, TriStar Centennial Medical Center, Tennessee; Michael H. Covert, FACHE, president/CEO of Palomar Health, California; and Darlene Stromstad, FACHE, CEO, Waterbury Hospital, Connecticut. All three presenters have been strongly involved with their chapters, and they will share experiences to help you reach out to a hard-to-engage group.

Leadership Development Program
On April 1 Regional Services rolled out to seven pilot chapters a leadership development program that will last for a six-month period. The program is designed to develop standardized procedures for chapters to use to train and orient board members, make leaders aware of ACHE resources and to develop future leaders both locally and nationally. Chapter leadership will designate a leadership development coordinator to work with their Regent and regional director. Additional details will follow after Congress. If you have questions about the program, please contact your regional director. We feel strongly this program will help overcome many of the challenges facing our chapters, including transition and succession planning, and will lead to higher sustainable performance.

Chapter Leaders Conference
The theme for the 10th annual Chapter Leaders Conference is Investigate your Leadership DNA.
Remember to mark your calendars for Sept. 30-Oct. 1, at the InterContinental Hotel O'Hare in Rosemont, Ill.! Look for registration information in early July.
