What unique aspects of the health care field might influence strategic planning?Discuss.
“ The volatile healthcare market demands that providers be nimble competitors with advanced, ongoing planning processes that drive growth and organizational effectiveness” (Zuckerman, 2006, p. 3). How does—or should—this perspective inform strategic planning and management in today’s health care organizations?
For this Application Assignment, you will create a visual representation (model) of the strategic planning and management process for a particular organization using either PowerPoint and/or MS word functions to create a one to two page document with a visual that describes the model of strategic planning and management process. The design you create for this Application Assignment will help you begin to think about aspects of strategic planning that you explore throughout this course. As you proceed through each week, you are encouraged to review your Week 1 Application Assignment and integrate new insights into the project. You will be required to submit a more robust version of this assignment for the Week 7 Application Assignment, so you may find it helpful to preview that assignment now.
Prepare for this Application Assignment as follows:
Based on the information presented in the Learning Resources, what are the key characteristics of strategic planning and management? How would you illustrate the process?
What are the main steps of the process that should be included?
What sub steps do you think should be added?
Are there variations that need to be reflected, or is the process fairly standard?
What additional factors—within organizations or surrounding them—shape this process? How should these be included in a graphic?
