Thank you to @MGHToronto’s Board of Directors for the opportunity to lead an organization I have called home for over 20 years. I look forward to working with the Board and hospital community, including @SarahEDowney1, to ensure a smooth transition during this interim period.
Thank you @WolfKlassen, VP, Program Support at MGH, for stepping into the role of interim President and CEO as of Sept. 3. During his 20+ years at MGH, Wolf has supported six CEOs and is well-positioned to assume this important leadership position. https://t.co/xpJjv7vyXM
