Ms. Chase, the CEO has learned that you can be depended upon, so you are not surprised to get an unexpected visit from her. She tells you that the board of directors has a new member, Mr. Jackson, who highly suggests that the board be better informed on governance, policy, and data management. Mr. Jackson is a retired director of the West Regional Policy Commission, and after his first meeting with the board, he gave them a topic list. Now, the board of directors wants a report for next month.

 

Ms. Chase reviewed the topic list and recognized that it weighs heavily in the HIM arena. As the HIM director, you were the obvious choice for her to partner with on this report. She asks you to prepare the report and to clear your calendar for next month's board meeting.
