Navigate healthcare's uncertain future with a proven strategy for transformative planning. This guide equips leaders to build agile, adaptable organizations ready for anything.
Traditional strategic planning too often results in incremental change focused more on next year's budget than on creative growth and sustainable development. Leadership teams struggle to "paint with two brushes" building in transformative change while maintaining current operations.
Transformative Planning: How Your Healthcare Organization Can Strategize for an Uncertain Future explains how leadership teams can lay the groundwork for new, transformational healthcare delivery models while simultaneously meeting the requirements of today. Learn to embrace uncertainty and incorporate flexibility into your long-term planning with essential frameworks, tools, and processes for developing and implementing strategic and execution plans that work. Healthcare leaders and governing boards will discover how to:
- Master mental models and decision traps
- Define vision and strategic priorities
- Develop strategy through scenario planning
- Implement an effective execution framework
