Program Description
The ability of hospitals to successfully articulate and execute an organizational strategy is more important than ever. Without a clear focus and well-aligned decisions, most hospitals will find it very difficult to thrive (or even survive) in the increasingly dynamic, competitive and cost-conscious health care marketplace. While it's certainly not trivial to come up with a good strategy, the bigger challenge for hospitals usually involves the successful execution of the strategy. Far too often, even carefully-crafted strategic plans often sit on the shelf, and the envisioned outcomes usually fail to materialize. In other cases, great efforts are made to implement a strategy, but without the appropriate strategic management tools, the obstacles prove too difficult to overcome. This presentation will explore how leading strategic management practices can help break down silos, create cooperation among different stakeholders and significantly enhance the communication and understanding that is a prerequisite for well-aligned strategy execution. Learning to use well-established tools - like strategy maps, theme teams, Balanced Scorecards, and employee engagement techniques - can equip hospital leaders to orchestrate the many different changes that allow a strategy to succeed.
Learning Objectives
At the completion of this program, the participant will be able to:
- Understand how to use Strategy Map development to translate a strategic plan into operational terms.
- Be able to use practical techniques to engage employees, develop cooperation between functional silos and to build a performance-oriented culture.
