Participants will learn from the Brighton Quinte West FHT experience of advancing a community governance model built on collaborative leadership to achieve their organizational transformation. The presentation will outline the process to create a standard approach for accountability and link strategic direction within a policy framework. The process focused on consistent application of relevant priorities based on the identified organizational deficits and opportunities for corporate standardization.
