CPSO seeking input on stakeholder engagement
The College of Physicians and Surgeons (CPSO) is currently planning for the implementation of its newly developed Strategic Plan, including the development of a Stakeholder Engagement Framework. The framework’s purpose is to support CPSO in regularly engaging with numerous stakeholders in a way that is meaningful to them and informative to CPSO’s work. This plan will build on the work CPSO is already doing to engage stakeholders, including the public/patients, system partners and physicians.
Optimus SBR is supporting the framework’s development and is hoping to speak with a few physician leaders who can share their perspectives on the best forums and methods for engagement with their peers. If you are interested in contributing to this initiative, Cole Clementino cole.clementino@optimussbr.com can help coordinate time for further discussion. Thank you in advance for considering participating in this initiative.
