Healthcare Change Makers


Jul 4, 2022

At HIROC, we recognize the critical importance of good governance in healthcare, and its impact on safe, quality care.

What makes for a positive relationship between a senior leadership team and their board? This year, we are digging deeper on Healthcare Change Makers and talking all about governing with impact.

Today HIROC’s CEO, Catherine Gaulton, sits down with Jo-anne Marr, President and CEO, and Mike Arnew, Board Chair at Oak Valley Health.

The two talk about the importance of healthy debate around the board table, where both leadership and the board need to approach decision making with a bit of humility.

This is a great episode for emerging and seasoned leaders who are looking for a clear path forward.

Quotables

“Governors work in partnership with the CEO and senior leadership team with respect to addressing key issues and decisions.” – JM

“Certainly, in my role I always think about, well if I was on this board, what would I want to be hearing? What level of conversation would I want to have?” – CG

“You have to trust that you can share the good, the bad and the ugly.” – MA

“I think we have to expect that board members, as Mike said, will ask lots of hard questions. I think we have to be really open to all of them, and maybe guiding a little bit when it’s too operational.” – JM
