Innovation Taskforce

The Innovation Taskforce helps implement mhca's program to formally recognize members for their innovative initiatives. (See Most Innovative member Award Plan: https://mhca.com/most-innovative-member-award) The Innovation Taskforce rates (0-5 stars) presentations given by members at each of mhca's quarterly conference, based on their innovative merit. At year-end, the taskforce will evaluate the ten (10) presentations receiving the highest scores (taskforce scores + session attendee scores) and via rank ordering determine the top five (5) innovative member initiatives to be recognized at the Annual Meeting.
The Taskforce meets via Zoom following each conference to review the member presentations and the attendee and taskforce’s submitted scores.

The Innovation Taskforce is Chaired by the Secretary of the Board – Kiara Kuenzler.
