The Ben Lindekugel Governance Excellence Award was created in 2019 to recognize a hospital board member or commissioner who has displayed exemplary leadership and community service. The award was named after the late Association of Washington Public Hospital Districts Executive Director Ben Lindekugel, who was especially dedicated to ensuring good governance among hospitals across Washington state. Lindekugel died unexpectedly in June.
The Ben Lindekugel Governance Excellence Award will be given each year by WSHA’s Hospital Governing Boards Committee to a hospital board member or commissioner who has displayed exemplary leadership and community service. All WSHA members can make nominations.
