Michael Fisher, President and CEO
Michael Fisher became president and CEO of Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center in January 2010, after serving five years on the board of trustees. Previously, he was a principal in his family’s business, Fisher Investment Group, president and CEO of Premier Manufacturing Support Services, and president of the Cincinnati USA Regional Chamber of Commerce.
One of Fisher’s first priorities was to launch a new strategic plan to accelerate Cincinnati Children’s progress toward being the leader in improving child health. The plan sets specific and challenging goals for delivering the safest care and measurably superior outcomes; targeting key community health issues; expanding the impact of clinical and research activities; building international relationships; and increasing philanthropic gifts to the medical center.
Fisher has championed robust programs in leadership development and employee health and wellness. In the current economic environment, he has intensified Cincinnati Children’s focus on value and stewardship of resources while preserving the organization’s commitment to its vision, mission and values.
