  • Organization development!! and change!!?

    Posted by admin on March 11th, 2010 and filed under organization development | 1 Comment »

    its for my project.

    ok so there’s a hospital with lack of staff and equipment- a private hospital

    the experienced staff has left, and their replacements are qualified with not much practical experience

    how to solve this problem?

    also how to measure an organizational intervention? plzzzzzzzz help me!!!!

    I would consider the following.

    (1) Start with the end in mind. To measure the impact of the program, identify the key outputs or measurements of performance in the hospital. Is it speed to recovery? Bed Utilization? Diagnostic accuracy? Find out the hospitals key performance metrics.
    (2) Then conduct a needs analysis that identifies the key challenges and or skills/experiences that the current staff is weak in that impact these metrics. This creates alignment between deficiency and how the hospital evaluates it performance.
    (3 Consider creating a mentoring program that offers some of those veterans that have left to come in on a contract basis to be coaches or mentors to the current staff. By making it part time, and structured around key challenges, skills, etc. you can get a focused effort from the mentors. Nothing works better than the Master/Apprentice development method.

    Just my thoughts. Hope this helps.
