Panel to identify trustee core competencies

The Center for Healthcare Governance and the Health Research & Educational Trust will convene an expert panel to identify trustee core competencies, which the center will use to develop educational resources for trustees. Chaired by Cambridge Health Alliance Trustee Richard de Filippi, the panel will include trustees, CEOs and experts in governance and leadership. It will complete its work by December 2008, and report the results at two Center symposia in 2009.

Funded by a grant from Hospira Inc., the project will build on the work of the center’s recent panel on effective health care governance practices. The Center for Healthcare Governance and HRET are American Hospital Association affiliates.
