The Impact

Case Study - governance

A private, specialty hospital was transitioning to an academic healthcare model and recognized the need to train executive leaders on how to create a values-based culture.

Challenge: Previous organizational governance and decision-making was linear with only top-level leadership making decisions and determining the institutional culture.

Solution: Academic Solutions mobilized a strategic advisory team to meet with executive leaders regularly to share Mayo Clinic leaders expertise. Training on values-based and team-based care was provided to all team members.

Impact: The specialty hospital has successfully deployed a Values Council and other institutional resources to ensure institutional values are at the forefront of all decisions.
