The Turnaround Imperative: A Guide for Survival in a Turbulent Health Care Environment

*Also available in value package
In his foreward to this book, Leland Kaiser, PhD, futurist and ACPE faculty member says, "I recommend this book for leaders of all health care organizations. It provides an excellent review of changing health care trends. Even better, it offers a practical guide on what to do about them. In many ways, The Turnaround Imperative is a survival manual for the remainder of the '90s and a thrival manual for the beginning of the 21st century."
