President's Message
Happy Holidays and Warm Wishes for the New Year!
As we bid farewell to the whirlwind of 2023, I reflect on the dynamic journey we've shared in the Missouri ACHE Chapter. This year brought forth change, growth, and resilience. At the beginning of the year, our revamped website took flight, offering a more user-friendly experience and an enhanced platform for our valued sponsors. In the Spring, we fostered connections at Congress in Chicago, where familiar faces and new acquaintances converged to strengthen our ties within the healthcare community.
In the fall, the leaves changed hues, and so did our leadership. A warm welcome to Ricky Ogden, our new President, who now steers the ship into 2024. And many thank yous to our volunteer board who work hard to create educational events and connection opportunities for all of us. We had another successful Board of Governors Prep session this fall – led by our Membership chair, Shirley Gamble, and supported by dedicated Fellows sharing their expertise. The collaborative spirit of our volunteers and the dedication of our members propelled us through a busy but undeniably wonderful year. As we embrace the holiday season, let's carry this momentum into the New Year, united in our commitment to advancing healthcare leadership in Missouri.
Wishing you joy, peace, and success in 2024!
Best Regards,
Matt Clausen
P.S. Stay tuned for exciting events and initiatives in the coming year – the journey continues!
Matt
