Book Description
Instructor Resources: Instructor's manual, PowerPoint slides, and a test bank.
Opportunities in healthcare can lead managers to new departments, to other health systems, or even around the globe. Healthcare managers who take on assignments in North America and around the world must be equipped with the knowledge and tools to work effectively with the systems, cultures, governments, and management teams of their new environments. As the profile of the global healthcare manager grows, so too does the need for future leaders to develop the skills and competencies necessary to achieve organizational success while improving the health of individuals and populations.
The text carries a strong cross-cultural emphasis, with chapters written by international authors who are experts on the health systems of specific countries. Key concepts are reinforced through examples, case studies, vignettes, exercises, and practical recommendations and guidelines.
The book is organized into four parts:
- Essential Health Services Management Concepts and Practices
- Leadership, Organizational Design, and Change
- Managing the Organization–Environment Interface
- Looking Ahead in Global Health Management
