Eight Questions that Changed the Culture at Cleveland Clinic

Cleveland Clinic is working to achieve a culture in which every caregiver is capable, empowered, and expected to make improvements every day.

To set themselves up for success, they coached caregivers to think through these questions:

1. What is the target condition (goal)?

2. What is the current condition?

3. What obstacles are in your way? Which one are you addressing now?

4. What is your next step?

5. When can we go and see?

6. What did you expect to happen?

7. What actually happened?

8. What did you learn?

Join us at the 9^th annual Lean Healthcare Transformation Summit, June 14-15 in Chicago, IL where the finance team from Cleveland Clinic will present a learning session and Lisa Yerian, MD will be a keynote speaker.

A Learning System that Results in Better Care

Managing vision and purpose with strategic agility has never been more important for health care leaders in a turbulent and transforming industry. We know that our old mental models and systems for strategic planning are insufficient; yet in our early attempts to translate the lean-based system of hoshin planning into strategy deployment, the essence of strategy has been lost in translation. We struggle with making strategic choices, aligning strategic intent in the organization, and deploying initiatives in a manner that accelerates learning.

Join us in a free webinar May 22nd at 11 AM CT to learn more about a learning system for strategy creation.
