About the Program
Join us on August 21 at Maggiano’s in Buckhead for our in-person lunch and learn program, “Bending the Execution Curve: Implementing Successful Organizational Change in Hospitals and Healthcare Organizations.” The program has been approved for 1.5 hours of ACHE In-Person Education credit.
In this session, our panelists will review the predictors of successful organizational change—with a particular focus on how to effect change in hospitals and healthcare organizations—along with select proven methods to overcome known challenges to change, including how to:
- Engage staff by connecting desired changes to their interests and the work they are already trying to accomplish;
- Use resistance to change as valuable feedback and a way to guide future activity; and
- Create supports (e.g., infrastructure, skills, etc.) to encourage and sustain behavior change.
