Teamwork in Healthcare: It Does a Body GoodTeamwork in Healthcare: It Does a Body
GoodHealthcare is a unique business because the customer is not necessarily the end user
of the service or the product. For example, for a hospital, the customer is also the physician,
as the hospital has much to lose if a physician chooses to provide his or her services at a
different hospital. Or if a customer is defined as the payer of the service or product, then the
customer is also the health insurance company or third-party payer. Therefore, healthcare
leaders must assess their potential markets, identify all the potential customers, and be
prepared to implement strategies unique to each of the distinct customer segments.CLICK
HERE TO ORDER YOUR ASSIGNMENTWithin their strategic agenda, leaders must assume
the responsibility of building teams to carry out and integrate the various tasks that
together make up healthcare delivery. The role of the healthcare leader as a team builder
and manager is to determine the future strategies that blend with his or her personal
inventory of talents.Effective teamwork is essential for helping a healthcare organization
achieve its objectives and meet patients’ needs. Healthcare leaders must fully understand
the stages of team development and the characteristics of effective teams, and they must
consider how the unique context of healthcare creates a particular demand for a productive
team-based environment in the competitive marketplace.For this Discussion, consider the
principles of strategic management, including team-building skills in the healthcare
environment.This week’s assigned Presenters should post a PowerPoint presentation with a
