(September 2025) – The Kansas Hospital Association and governWell are pleased to bring KHA members a program designed for board chairs, chair-elects, vice chairs and board members in line to be chair. Learn about the board chair's leadership role, including how to build purposeful agendas, facilitation and executive sessions, the Open Meetings Act, quality oversight, the board chair-CEO relationship, board conduct, board orientation, learning and development and board self-assessment.

This virtual program will consist of three, 90-minute Zoom sessions (4:00 - 5:30 p.m. on Oct. 23, Nov. 6 and Nov. 18) and an optional individual coaching session.  Attendance will be limited to 50 trustees; one trustee per hospital is allowed, unless extra slots become available. Previous attendees are welcome to return if they would like a refresher on the covered content. Trustees will have access to breakout rooms to connect with other trustees. This education is for trustees only. Trustees will need to have a video connection and be able to use the chat feature in Zoom. Session resources will be shared with attendees' CEOs in advance of the program.
