Hospice Governance Academy’s (HGA) short videos make it easy to stay up to date on the latest issues facing hospices and to refresh our knowledge so that we can be more effective in our roles. One of the exciting things about this platform is that helps us to focus on a few key things and not feel overwhelmed.
Ensure Your Board Chair Gets Off to a Great Start
High-performing governance starts with arming board leadership with the tools and tactics they need to successfully guide and influence not only a board, but a board that is fully engaged, that understands its roles and responsibilities, and models and champions a culture of integrity, fairness, and respect. The Hospice Board Chair Advantage (HBCA) program is an on-demand customized course on the advanced topics of hospice board governance and leadership. Participants will work directly with Integriti3D President and hospice governance expert, Bill Musick, to identify areas of strength and opportunities for growth specific to your board. Participants will also be connected to a broader network of other Board Chairs and industry leaders through monthly sessions, panel discussions, and networking opportunities.

Are your aspirations for your board at risk because of one of these limiting beliefs?
Pick a good board chair and then hope for the best.
We want to believe that if we pick the best available person to chair the board that they’ll do a great job. Without intentional effort to onboard a new board chair: figuring out how to best work with the chief executive in a productive fashion, modifying their relationship to the rest of the board in this new role, and determining priorities for the board’s work during their term, you may find yourself falling short of your aspirations.
Board members, and chairs in particular, are too busy to spend time learning.
Board members ARE too busy to waste time in meetings that don’t add value, but our experience shows us that board members want to learn, want to be engaged and want to add value. Tools like HGA, with a 4.8 out of 5 rating by users, is one way. Board Chair Advantage takes you even further with less effort on your part.
It can be dangerous for board members and chairs to learn independently.
I think most of us who have been chief executives have experienced that angst when a board member brings in “independent” information and the fear that this information will take the member and the rest of the board down a rabbit hole that is not a priority for the board and organization. But the solution is not to create a “bobble-head board,” where a board is only fed information from the Chief Executive and everyone politely nods their heads in agreement, but rather to build a board room culture where members feel comfortable raising questions, and where members feel equally comfortable to remind colleagues of their role and their priorities. This goes a lot further to build trust and add value.
