Transformative Planning: How Your Healthcare Organization Can Strategize for an Uncertain FutureTraditional strategic planning too often results in incremental change focused more on next year's budget than on creative growth and sustainable development. Leadership teams struggle to “paint with two brushes”: building in transformative change while maintaining current operations.
