· Assessment Instructions
Overview
This assessment is the culmination of your work in the course. It includes the analyses you made of your selected organization, details of your proposed strategic plan, and recommendations for implementing your plan. An important aspect of this assessment is providing the rationale used when you incorporate feedback from stakeholders and/or colleagues (instructor, mentor…) into your integrated final report.
Preparation
To successfully complete this assignment, you will be expected to:
· Use strategic management and knowledge management theory and research to analyze the current environment of a health care organization.
· Apply strategic planning tools and research to determine alternative strategies for a health care organization’s future success.
· Synthesize operational and financial components in the strategic planning process.
· Evaluate the effect of your strategy formulation.
· Integrate additional knowledge that you have gained and feedback you have received as the course progressed.
· Incorporate any necessary instructor feedback and real-world feedback (from colleagues, for example) into previously submitted assessments, including your Kaltura recording and PowerPoint presentation.
Integration of Feedback
· Step One: Share this plan with a colleague in your profession (preferably in the health care organization you are analyzing) and receive feedback on your management and implementation strategies.
· Step Two: Integrate additional knowledge that you have gained along with the feedback you have received as the course progressed. Incorporate real-world and instructor feedback into previously submitted elements, including your Kaltura recording and PowerPoint presentation.
. Refine each element accordingly and assemble a fully integrated plan. Create footnotes where refinements were made as a result of feedback received. Call out your rationale for changes made or reasons you chose to retain elements even though a stakeholder might have called for a change.
. Re-record your 5–10 minute presentation as needed.
