Leadership Strategies for Reaching Top Performance Faster
It is not an easy task to move an average-performing hospital
forward. Encouraging signs, such as the success of the 100,000
Lives Campaign and optimism on the part of hospital leaders,
suggest that progress is being made. However, an objective analysis
of publicly available data suggests otherwise, showing that nearly
2,000 boards and CEOs still face the problem of demonstrating any
measurable improvement in performance during their tenure.
