Our aspiration is to bring together women CEOs leading Iowa hospitals to exchange and share experiences to strengthen leadership and strategies for navigating today’s environments and build community inspiring positive change and achieving a bright and better workplace.
With the guidance of women serving on the IHA Board, IHA held its first ever women’s retreat for Iowa hospital CEOs this past fall. The retreat was a huge success and those attending want more.
In response to requests we’ve created easy ways to connect …
- Listserv: IowaHospitalCEOWomensForum@lists.ihaonline.org. The listserv is populated with the women hospital CEOs in Iowa. If you want to be removed or use a different email address, contact Allison Martin at IHA.
- Cell phone numbers: Contact Ellen Waller at IHA to add yours.
Note: This is a private page for women serving as CEOs in Iowa hospitals. The page is hidden on the IHA website, and the link is only being shared with women CEOs.
So, what’s next?
To further support this community, we are forming an advisory committee. It's anticipated the committee will hold 2-3 virtual meetings of one hour or less. Please contact Becky Anthony at IHA to join.
