Our Mission
Provide system-wide leadership through collaboration with patients, the public and those working within the health system in a relentless pursuit of quality.
“Hierarchy is necessary for (and only for!) building compliance. It is not networked. As formal power, it is not
a form of leadership – but of management. In the presence of formal power, leadership is actually quite
impossible to happen.”
Influence is necessary for social density and connection. It is networked. It is a form of leadership.
Reputation is necessary for value creation. It is
networked, as well. It is the second form of leadership.”

“Leaders need to excel at co-creation and collaboration—the currencies of the social
media world. Executives must understand the nature of different social-media tools and the
unruly forces they can unleash.”
