- Summary
- Key organizational processes such as team building, change and innovation, visionary leadership, motivating performance, and designing health care organizations for the future are also covered. Special features: topics selected for inclusion were chosen by health care professionals and academics through a comprehensive survey; each chapter is written by an active researcher in the field; and each chapter represents the latest in academic research but is oriented toward applications rather than theory.
- Readers may focus on managing relationships with stakeholders, customers, external environmental forces, and other organizations - as in the case of strategic alliances. To provide readers with the resources they will need to manage effectively, the text presents selected tools managers can use to improve organizational performance including: financial analysis, economics, information systems, marketing, and total quality management.
- The Handbook of Health Care Management is written by recognized experts in the field of health care management. The goal of the text is to provide a link between health care research, theory, and practice. Based on the most recent theory and research, the chapters are presented in a way that is meaningful and useful to health care decision makers.
