Overview

As we learned this week, the strategic management process has five steps: 1) Establish the mission and the vision; 2) Assess the current reality; 3) Formulate the grand strategy; 4) Implement the strategy; and 5) Maintain strategic control.

Below is a 6-minute video where Professor Donald Sull discusses recommendations for translating strategy into results.

Theresa and Mike fully support creating a code of conduct for the merged organization. They have asked you to recommend how they should approach the development of the code of conduct, especially given the need to merge the companies into one team with a shared mission, vision, and values. They are interested in knowing how the code of conduct will help establish the new organizational culture.

Review the scenario for this course, and prepare a 500–700-word executive report that includes the following:

• What set of steps should be used to create the code of conduct?
• What should be included in the code of conduct?
• What impact does a code of conduct have on an organization’s culture?

Your Project Sponsor pulls you aside and admits that he has no idea what earned value management concepts (EVM), such as AC, BCWP, and EV mean; he is only concerned that you deliver the project ahead of schedule and under budget. Using the information covered from your readings and other activities, develop a project to educate him, including which EVM performance measures you would educate him on. Provide a rationale for your selection of topics.

It’s been a great first week shadowing Emma at CM Tech.  You have learned about actions management can take that lead to poor performance. You’ve read about significant developments in the history of management and how well they did or did not work at CM Tech, and even contemplated what the next big thing might be.  Emma wants to be sure you fully understand all that you have learned and have a solid baseline of information for use in the new concepts you will be learning going forward.  Thus, she has asked you to assemble a report that analyzes what you have learned so far.  

Your report should include the following: 

1. What actions can management take to ensure poor performance?  Support your assertions with examples and research.
2. What is performance management and what has prompted such a keen interest in it? 
3. What are some of the most significant management breakthroughs in history?  Share your experiences with at least three of them.  If you haven’t experienced any element of the breakthrough items then share how they might have applied at CM Tech had you worked there.
4. Explain how you and Emma can apply all of this information at CM Tech.  How can all of your past experiences, knowledge of performance management, and of significant management breakthroughs to guide CM Tech strategy and future success?  Support your assertions with examples and research.

Your report should outline the key concepts in each area listed above and provide examples as appropriate.  Be sure your report is a minimum of 4 to 5 pages, includes an introduction and conclusion paragraph, title page, and references page.  The title and references pages do not count toward the total page count.  

The report should be formatted in APA style and be supported by a minimum of three scholarly references. Since CM Tech is a fictitious company, you may use great liberty in this assignment in creating or imagining the details needed in order to write your report.  

HA3220D – Health Information Systems

Assignment 03: System Solutions

  Liverty Hospital is ready to move forward with implementing a new EHR system. In Discussion 2.3, you and your team evaluated three different products:

.Waiting Room Solutions

.Practice Fusion EHR

.AllScripts MyWay EHR

Since your evaluation, you have learned that one of the main issues encountered at the hospital is the accessibility of patient information in its specialty clinics, as well as the technical skill level of the clinical staff. So you decide to evaluate one additional product: Waiting Room Solutions Specialty Packs. Look for specialties like allergy & immunology, audiology, bariatric surgery, etc. If you scroll down, you will find different videos within each specialty. 

Based on this new information, and the evaluation you have already completed, make a recommendation of which EHR Liverty should choose. Summarize your recommendation in a 2-page double-spaced paper in APA style. In your recommendation,

.briefly describe the features of this product that differentiate it from others you have evaluated.

.incorporate the product evaluation you did in the Week 2 VoiceThread.

.discuss specific system functions and how they will meet your organization’s needs and requirements.

Incorporate the product evaluation you did in the Week 2 VoiceThread. Discuss specific system functions and how they meet your organization’s needs and requirements.

Each student will select one of the key terms presented in the module and conduct a search of Campbellsville University’s online Library resources to find 1 recent peer-reviewed academic journal article (within the past 3 years) that closely relate to the concept. Your submission must include the following information in the following format:

DEFINITION: a brief definition of the key term followed by the APA reference for the term; this does not count in the word requirement.

SUMMARY: Summarize the article in your own words- this should be in the 150-200 word range. Be sure to note the article’s author, note their credentials and why we should put any weight behind his/her opinions, research or findings regarding the key term.

DISCUSSION: Using 300-350 words, write a brief discussion, in your own words of how the article relates to the selected chapter Key Term. A discussion is not rehashing what was already stated in the article, but the opportunity for you to add value by sharing your experiences, thoughts and opinions. This is the most important part of the assignment.

REFERENCES: All references must be listed at the bottom of the submission–in APA format.
