Assignment : Thinking Strategically
Health care professionals need to answer at least three essential questions when thinking strategically about their organization's present circumstances and future prospects:
Where is the organization now? This question focuses on the current business of the organization, the patient segments that the organization caters to, and the current strategy of the organization.
Where does the organization want to go? This question focuses on the organization's vision and aspirations.
How will the organization get there? This question focuses on the strategic moves required to fulfill the mission, vision, and values of the organization and its broad set of strategic goals.
