Role-Alike Leadership Councils
In service to our members, NASH is pleased to coordinate a number of role-alike leadership councils for system leaders.
Each role-alike leadership council has a NASH staff lead that helps coordinate the membership and agendas and facilitates the meetings. The benefits of role-alike leadership councils include:
- Participate in an open forum for the exchange of ideas
- Share problems of practice and learn potential solutions
- Network with colleagues who share the distinct challenge of leadership at the system level
- Provide feedback on proposed NASH policies and programs
- Receive updates on NASH’s transformation agenda
Below you will find information on each of our role-alike leadership councils as well as details on how to join. Role-alike leadership council meeting dates are also maintained on our NASH calendar.
