Context

Today, in health care management, there is an appropriate emphasis on outcomes and results. However, in the specific case of strategic management, we often say that the process of strategic thinking is more important than the product—the plan. In health care, the product is actually the service of care delivery.

Strategic thinking is a challenging and exciting task for healthcare leaders. It requires experienced health care executives to think creatively and reserve judgment of new ideas.

The Assessment 4 Context document contains important information about the following topics related to successful implementation of strategic plans:

. Decision making methodologies.

. Culture, structure, and value chain.

. Implementation strategies.

. Change strategies.

. Strategic control.

.

Questions to Consider

To deepen your understanding, you are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of the business community.

. What role does a TOWS analysis play when looking for some strategic alternatives?

. What is a value differentiation strategy?

8. How would you use it and why?

. If you were looking for a marketing strategy, how would you determine which market entry strategy would provide the quickest entry into the market?

9. What advantages might the slowest strategy offer?

. What changes first: Strategy or structure?

. What role does consumerism play in marketing a service?

. Does your health organization operate as a consumerism-driven service? If so, how does this affect the organization?

. What issues do hospital leaders face in responding to a disaster from the perspective of human resources, legal, and financial issues?.

13. What, if anything, is a local hospital required to do in response to a disaster?

. What are the primary differences in the human resources strategies needed for expansion, contraction, and maintenance of scope?

. Which type of adaptive strategy is the most difficult to implement from a human resources perspective? Why?

16. What would be a good example of this in your own health care organization?

Note: Assessment 3, TOWS Matrix must be completed before beginning this assessment.

Preparation

Organize your thoughts. Use the balanced scorecard methodology to complete an implementation plan for the strategy you recommended for your corporation in Assessment 3. You are encouraged to strive for flow of logic, substance, and brevity.

Step One: Create PowerPoint Presentation

When preparing the information for your presentation, focus on the conceptual level to make sure you are on target and aligned with strategic goals. Remember, CEOs expect presentations to be brief, substantive, and concise.

Design for your Audience: If your organization has “branding standards,” use them. You are expected to follow generally recognized guidelines for professional presentations. Spare your audience from a “death by PowerPoint” experience. Consult the suggested resources to remind yourself of the do’s and don’ts of effective presentations.

Address the following points in your briefing:

. Describe at least five objectives, with your corresponding metrics, targets, and initiatives, to help the organization achieve the strategic direction you have designed.

. Present your operational recommendations and strategic control mechanisms.

. Include the strategic goals, objectives, and action steps for reconfiguring and aligning the organization’s structure, systems, shared values, management style, staff, and skills.

. Include critical success indicators that the organization can use to measure its performance in implementing the strategy.

. Evaluate the effect of your strategy formulation, weighing factors of measurement against current measurement benchmarks in the organization.

Presentation Structure

In the real world, you can consider yourself lucky when you get 5–10 minutes of a CEOs time. You will need to limit your briefing to 10–12 slides or you will run out of time. Structure your briefing following the format below. Use the notes portion of each slide to write your script and practice your script to make sure you stay as close to the suggested time frames as possible.

. Slide 1: Cover (15 seconds).

. Slide 2: Vision/Mission/Values (30 seconds).

. Slide 3: External environment analysis tool applied (table) (1 min).

. Slide 4: Internal analysis tool applied (table or graphic) (1 minute).

. Slide 5: Gap analysis: desired position v. actual (1 min).

. Slide 6: Recommend directional strategy (1 minute).

. Slide 7: Develop 3–4 key goals/objectives (1 minutes).

. Slide 8: Visual: Balanced Scorecard table with 1–3 performance indicators and associated metrics (1 min).

. Slide 9: Analysis (1 min).

. Slide 10: Recommendations/Conclusions (1 min).

. Slide 11: References.

Step Two: Practice and Record Your Briefing

Use Kaltura to practice and record your briefing. When you are satisfied with your recorded presentation, submit it along with your PowerPoint presentation and any relevant addendums.

Additional Requirements

. Time length: 5–10 minute recorded presentation targeted to the CEO of your corporation.

. Number of slides: PowerPoint slide deck containing 10–12 slides.

. Addendum: Include all relevant supporting details, such as data, charts, and graphs as an addendum to the presentation. Indicate the slide associated with the relevant data set.

. APA formatting: Resources and citations are formatted according to current APA style and formatting.

. Number of Resources: Use a minimum of six authoritative contemporary sources to support your presentation.
