"The news media today are replete with a never-ending flow of public concern about health care. Although this apprehension is more than justified, such public attention adds to the already significant pressures faced by physicians, nurses, executives, and other health care workers. Every day, they are implored to do more with less, satisfy increasingly diverse populations with expanding demands for service and quality, and stretch insufficient resources among numerous deserving, yet competing, groups."

"Women and Leadership In Health Care, the Journey to Authenticity and Power"
Robinson-Walker

Many health care organizations experience one or more of these problems. Do you see your organization, team or department in any of these descriptions?

"Our leaders and managers have too many tasks and priorities that compete with each other. "

"Our clinical staff members are well trained and very talented, yet they are frustrated, angry and depressed."

"Even though our people are very skilled, they are unable to meet the demands of their jobs and the organization."

"Professionals from different disciplines don't seem to respect one another--and it is affecting patient care."

"A number of our leaders and managers don't live up to their potential on the job."

Imagine a healthier organization in which every one of these statements were turned around: leaders and managers would be more skilled at managing ambiguity, complexity and work-life balance; there is increasing respect for diversity and difference; and the organization has more satisfied staff and is well on the way to achieving better outcomes.

Anyone familiar with the health care world knows that it is very difficult to turn these problems into the results we want. Health care leaders and practitioners are often stretched to the limit. They are also profoundly disaffected by the changes they are experiencing in medicine and nursing. Some professionals question whether they can remain in their current roles.
