From the Governance Centre of Excellence comes this conference with top authorities from the government, legal, private and health care sectors.  Chaired by Neil Stuart, Chair of the OHA’s Governance Committee, the Conference will feature an opening presentation from Dr. Ann Cavoukian – Ontario’s Information and Privacy Commissioner, and an always engaging, charismatic and thought-provoking speaker.

Ontario’s Auditor General, Jim McCarter, will also be presenting to us – on his mandate and the lessons and learning it brings to the health care context.  Among many other sessions will be an interactive workshop – providing the opportunity for discussion with fellow conference attendees – facilitated by Dr. Elaine Todres, CEO of Todres Leadership Counsel.

This Conference is geared toward senior management of health care organizations in Ontario – toward CEOs, Boards of Directors and VPs of hospitals, CCACs, LTCs and other health care organizations.
