This book - written for those holding, preparing for, or aspiring to managerial-level and above leadership positions within healthcare organizations - promotes a new, forward-thinking framework for leadership, a model that innovates upon the current paradigm directing leadership thinking, integrating the best business and social concepts, strategies, and practices with healthcare. Like its namesake, this integrated leadership model is about bringing the best leadership assumptions and practices together so that their weaknesses amidst shifting environments are buoyed by the others' strengths. Prior to detailing the integrated leadership model, however, readers will find out how ""organized medicine"" has changed over the decades (Chapter 1), what innovation really means (Chapter 2), and how to think clearly about strategic management and its constituent parts (strategic thinking, strategy development, and strategic planning) (Chapter 3). Then, the other models which helped contribute conceptually to the development of the integrated leadership model, along with the model itself, are discussed (Chapter 4). The chapters that follow (Chapters 5-7) explore each of the three primary modes of leadership behavior (anticipatory, strategic, and administrative) that keep an organization focused and refreshed throughout its various innovation-minded, effectiveness-establishing, and efficiency-building pursuits. For those wondering about integrating the model into their leadership habits (or scaling it for their organizations), Chapter 8 includes a short story about a healthcare organization in which the model is not spoken of, though its existence should be clearly perceived. The imaginary organization will illustrate ways in which the theory that undergirds the model and the practices which bring it to life can have a home in your organization.
