ACHE STUDY“CEO Succession Planning in Freestanding U.S. Hospitals: Final Study”October 27, 2004 (Full Report Available on ACHE Website)
Study revealed: 21% of hospitals ‘routinely’ develop C-Suite leadership
succession; 17% of these have identified a CEO successor
Hospitals with a median of >130 staffed beds most likely to develop succession planning programs

Observations from an Interim CEO: Hospital Environment Upon ArrivalHospital Sizes 15-120 Beds
Hospital CEO’s had departed 10-20+days prior to arrival
Irregardless of the reason for CEO departure, I found:
Perceived (or real) communications breakdown in specific areas-internal and external stakeholders
Halt/slowdown of short term strategic and tactical planning
Communication issues led to negative perceptions toward the leadership team (to include the Board)
Key leadership (C-Suite) vacancies compromised operational/strategic accountability

Transition vs. Change
Change is “external”
Transition is “internal”
“Normal” Turnover, e.g. no succession planning can have negative impacts similar to the previous slide

Why Succession Planning for the CEO and Key Leadership is Not the “Norm” in U.S. Hospitals
Why do you think our Hospital Districts don’t do succession planning?

Future Board Development of Succession Planning(CEO Alert)
“Big Business” boards are encouraged to plan 4 years ahead
“Practical Governance” by Tyler and Biggs encourages hospital boards to:
Confirm succession planning is being done by adding to the CEO’s Performance Evaluation
Board to approve ‘successor’ and succession plan Board to ensure that future Board leadership supports plan
