WHEN BEGINNING WORK on a reengineering project at William Beamount Hospital, Jean Ann Larson noticed an abundance of materials that talked about what tools to make it happen. After experimenting with a variety of techniques, she developed and implemented an eight-step facilitation methodology and set of corresponding tools.
For those in healthcae who are working on a redesign or reengineering project, this book covers all the key aspects-from team formation, to measurement, to process analysis-and walks you through the hands-on, day-to-day implementation.
Larson's approach for a redesign or reengineering project starts with steps that must be take during the initial stage. Once the teams have been formed and oriented, the actual redesign process occurs, beginning with a concerns analysis and concluding with the employment of project management techniques to begin implementation.
