Chapter 5 in Leading Strategic Change in an Era of Healthcare Transformation, 2016, pp 71-89 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Strategies are only as good as their execution. Unfortunately, most major change initiatives fail to realize their objectives. This chapter outlines the major barriers to change, and what healthcare leaders can do to improve the likelihood for driving transformational change. There are many parts to execution: from prioritization to team structure, metrics to commitment, and expressed values to embedded culture. All require special focus. Throughout, it is the balance between short-term, tactical goals and longer term, transformational efforts that healthcare leaders need to embrace.
