Health Care Reform: Disruption and Opportunity

The health care revolution is upon us! Arriving with breath-taking speed and driven by an extraordinary array of forces, this revolution has sent many healthcare companies reeling from its onslaught.

Ken Jennings asserts that those companies that survive and prosper during this revolution will undergo sweeping transformations. They will create new businesses, invent new processes, build new management systems and envision and create the future in brilliant and innovative ways. Some have, in fact, already begun to undergo this dynamic metamorphosis.

Drawing on the experience of these companies, and the wisdom of some of the best and brightest leaders in the healthcare industry, Ken engages with you to see how they:

  • Craft breakthrough strategies
  • Employ cutting edge competencies in leadership
  • Form profitable, mutually beneficial partnerships
  • Develop outstanding change management skills
