Show Notes:
The key to creating a high performance project management system. Hint: Your hospital needs to get super clear on its goals and track your priorities in real-time.
How the right software can transform your hospital’s project management success.
Why a consistent ‘’bite size’’ approach helps health systems to create clarity and avoid confusion. ‘’Instead of having 10 projects to complete, what are three tasks that I can do right now to get one project done, or two projects done?"
The steps to getting started for project management teams in overwhelm – and how data eliminates emotion and confusion. ‘’If you use a project management system… you let the data speak for itself.’’
Why the profits are in the process and why the more complicated a process becomes, the higher the costs. Hint: Managing email and a project management system can be a challenge for every healthcare organization.
Why every hospital needs to time track effectively ‘’Time tracking allows you to really see what the true time is if you’re averaging certain tasks and isolate the outliers of when productivity is really not where it needs to be.’’
How to manage the balance between the speed of your tasks - and why you need to differentiate between tasks that require deep thinking and those that require momentum.
