Practical Tips for Maintaining a Growth Mindset in your Organization

By Morgan Atkins

Stratasan understands how paramount change is to progress. We strive to be trailblazers in the healthcare space, developing innovative tools and services that address our clients' growth goals. The best way we can effectively lead our clients and provide value is by innovative thinking that challenges the status quo. Our goal is to empower our customers with the strategies that will equip them to more effectively face a challenging and ever-evolving healthcare industry.

At the heart of innovation is the ability to reframe your perspective. Henry Ford once said "If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses." Often, the question itself limits what you think the possibilities are. If you have an open mind about the possibilities, you maximize your chances of building effective and unexpected solutions.

A Review: 2017 SHSMD Executive Dialogue

By Lee Ann Lambdin

Between February 21–22, 2017, a group of senior-level strategic executives gathered in Scottsdale, AZ for the SHSMD Executive Dialogue: Leading Change, an interactive seminar with in-depth dialogue about healthcare strategy and marketing. I had the pleasure to attend the meeting and learn from both presenters and other attendees.

The learning objectives for this event were the following:

• Critically consider major changes in healthcare and explore implications for healthcare strategy professionals.
• Examine in-depth, significant organizational imperatives and the role strategic leaders play in effective planning, implementation, and execution.
• Gain new insights into the expertise and approaches that will lead to personal and organizational success through open dialogue with recognized experts, along with peer strategic leaders.

With 3 speakers at this conference, one presentation from a sponsor, and an hour of Q&A and discussion after each speaker, there was a great deal of interaction and dialogue between the attendees. There were forty attendees, creating a true sense of intimacy and openness among those in attendance. In short, it was a very worthwhile meeting.
