Secrets to a Highly Engaged Board
One of the fundamental responsibilities of boards is engagement – only through showing up and building relationships based on trust, respect and candor can we expect volunteers to make strategic decisions to further our missions. This session will include suggestions on how to cultivate and articulate a healthy board culture. Exceptional governance requires time and attention, and we will explore both staff and board responsibilities in building the best board possible.

Objectives:
• Walk away with concrete examples of how to build a healthy board culture
• Understand the competitive advantage a highly functioning board can give your organization

Speakers: Melissa Andrews, President & CEO, LeadingAge Virginia, and Keith Seeloff, Partner, FORVIS

February 8, 2023
The Future of Health Care Services and Consumer Preferences
To maintain relevance and long-term organizational sustainability, organizations must routinely evaluate their position in the marketplace, assess their operations and financial strength, and consider repositioning options and growth opportunities. A comprehensive life-cycle analysis of the product and services offered is critical to the strategic planning process. This session will evaluate the impact consumer preferences and shrinking utilization is having on long-term care and the broader senior living continuum especially with regard to Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS).

Objectives:
• Review consumer desires of long-term care services for the future
• Learn how HCBS will be impacted
• Understand the possible need to diversify income into HCBS or more levels of less intensive care models
• Hear what others are doing to adjust in a post-COVID world

Speakers: Greg Hensley, Senior VP, and Dana Wollschlager, Practice Leader & Partner, Plante Moran Living Forward, and Senior Options (speaker TBD)
