Our Professional Networking

The Central Texas Chapter of ACHE is pleased to provide its membership the value-added benefit of ongoing, professional networking opportunities and administration-related search education sessions, held at local venues across the region. Sessions are often held each spring and fall, with each meeting focusing on current industry demands of successful healthcare administrators, as well as networking professionals’ opinions on what matters most when searching for that next executive opportunity.This networking event is a continuation of the Texas Hospital Association (THA) Healthcare Executive Network (HEN), which was originally established by Jon Hilsabeck n 1990 to assist with the advancement of careers in healthcare leadership positions across Central Texas. The group consists of hospital and healthcare executives who have periodically come together as “friends helping friends” to assist colleagues with networking skills, employment opportunities, and other professional relationship goals at the local level. The network has been a valuable resource providing numerous contacts that have produced positive results and ongoing opportunities in healthcare administration.

Event Cost – most often, pre-registration is required for HEN events, which will be emailed out to all CT-ACHE members prior to the event. Event participants are asked to simply cover the cost of their lunch for the event in order to help keep admission costs at a minimum.

While Mr. Hilsabeck continues to attend and often participate in meeting panel sessions regularly, Cristian Lieneck (Central Texas ACHE member) oversees the current network and ongoing schedule/planning of meetings for the HEN. Questions about this CT-ACHE member benefit may be directed to Cristian using the email contact information below.
