The effects of CEO-board relations on hospital performance.
This article assesses the relationship between CEO-board relations and hospital financial performance. A study of 90 acute care California hospitals examined changes in the relations between the CEO and governing board over two time periods in 1985 and 1989. The results show that CEO-board participation is an effective governance mechanism that significantly enhances hospital performance.
