Chapter Chapter 6 in Healthcare Leadership in Times of Crisis, 2021, pp 125-157 from Springer Abstract: Abstract Two themes define this chapter. First, managing the challenges associated with a troublesome event, crisis, catastrophe or disaster is more than making decisions or building plans in response to threats or fear of loss. The second is that ownership for the event management or crisis containment efforts rests with the organization’s executives. In the face of a troublesome event or emerging crisis people often ask, “Who ‘owns’ the event management or crisis containment effort” or “Where does the “buck stop”? Our answer to both questions is that ownership for these efforts rests with the organization’s executives and, importantly, also with the organization’s Boards and advisors. What we expect to see at the top of today’s healthcare organizations is “change leadership.” Keywords: Change management; Change management; Containment challenges; Containment process; Containment and organizational leadership; Preparing an action plan; Leadership and communication (search for similar items in EconPapers) There are no downloads for this item, see the EconPapers FAQ for hints about obtaining it.
