Congratulations!

As the hospital CEO turnover rate is amongst the highest of all industries, and even higher in rural communities, there are a number of factors adversely affecting a CEO’s ability to perform. Financial pressures, staff engagement, and patient safety and quality challenges are just a few of the many issues a CEO must juggle during a “typical” year. With the onset of COVID-19, 2020 and 2021 have proven to be anything but typical.

In his presentation titled “COVID-19 and CEO Turnover: What’s a Board to do?,” Robert will discuss root causes of CEO turnover and the toll it takes on an organization in terms of dollars and other costs. More importantly, he will share actions a hospital board can take to help prevent CEO turnover, as well as ensuring it has the tools it needs to come out of a CEO transition governing an even stronger organization.

Robert Thorn, MBA, FACHE, Director at Pinnacle Healthcare Consulting, will be speaking at the Montana Hospital Association’s 2021 Montana Healthcare Conference September 21-24 in Billings.
