A board searches for a CEO.
The board of directors of Mercy Hospital, Urbana, IL, recently chose to conduct its own search for a new CEO. Research on other self-directed searchers, delineation of the hospital's needs, and development of criteria for the CEO led to the screening of candidates. Both the board and the new CEO believe that the selection method--a time- and energy-consuming one--contributed greatly to the current mutual satisfaction.
