CEO Roundtable: Successfully Leading Change in Healthcare Organizations
The healthcare environment is constantly changing, and provider organizations
must adapt in order to survive and thrive. Organizations are frequently asked to
respond to legislative changes, market fluctuations, safety concerns, and patient
or staff demands. The success of major change implementation hinges on how it
is communicated and how it impacts individuals and processes in the organization.
Stakeholders frequently resist change for many reasons, including not having
enough information, fear of how the change will affect them, comfort with the
status quo, and not understanding the benefits of the change. For change to
truly be effective, a leader must know how to effectively communicate the
benefits, minimize the barriers and describe the processes. Learn from your
peers as they share approaches that were successful and those that
impeded the change process.
