eadership’s Role in Organizational Change

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, read Chapters 12 through 14 in the Wager, Lee, & Glaser (2017) text.

Health care leaders understand their role as change managers.
Managing organizational change in health information systems initiatives
can be very complex and concurrently rewarding, even when carried out
strategically. The way in which data is inputted, stored, accessed, and
disseminated is essential to quality patient health outcomes, profit
margins, standardization, and strategic planning. When a health
information system implementation is completed effectively and
efficiently, the result is a quality IT project that is not only ready
for the next generation but is ready for new technology convergence.
