Children's Hospitals Today - Fall 2024 - 31

BOARD MEMBER Q&A / VITALS
MOST PEOPLE DON'T
KNOW: I have a tradition
of dressing up for
Halloween and coming to
the hospital in costume.
My official start date at
Children's Mercy was on
Nov. 1, 2018, but I arrived
one day early as Captain
America.
MOTTO: Always have a
healthy impatience with
the status quo, and never
accept the current state as
the best we can do.
LEADERSHIP STYLE IN
THREE WORDS: Servant,
strategic, and adaptive.
ADVICE TO LEADERS: My
dad once told me, " Always
do the right thing. It will
rarely be the easy thing,
but do it anyway. " I can't
think of any better advice
for leaders.
Paul Kempinski,
MS, FACHE
After more than four decades
in health care leadership, Paul
Kempinski, president and CEO
of Children's Mercy Kansas City,
has announced his retirement. He
has served on the CHA Board of
Trustees since 2022.
TRAITS YOU VALUE
IN A COLLEAGUE:
Honesty, authenticity,
and a commitment to
the greater good of the
organization versus a
personal agenda.
STAYING MOTIVATED:
I walk the halls, units,
departments and engage
with team members
and volunteers. It's the
passion and drive of these
individuals that fuels me
every single day.
WHAT YOU ENJOY AS A
BOARD MEMBER: Calling
these amazing leaders
friends and colleagues.
Being a hospital CEO can
be lonely, but within the
board we can confide in
one another about our
challenges.
