1. Assess the value of dynamic strategic thinking, particularly in the health care
environment. Speculate on the most significant potential consequences should a health care
organization neglect to think strategically. Give at least one (1) specific example of the
constant changes that keep health care organizations seeking new strategies continually.
Dynamic strategic thinking is very valuable in the healthcare environment. Dynamic
strategic thinking enables a healthcare organization to utilize its available resources effectively
while advancing the facility towards its objectives. It also ensures that a healthcare facility is
adapting to the changing business environment. According to Goldman, Scott and Follman
(2015), dynamic strategic thinking is valuable in a healthcare environment because it ensures
improved decision making and that the limitations that may hinder the healthcare facility from
reaching its greatest potential are identified.
Should a healthcare organization neglect to think strategically, then they would suffer
different consequences like low employee morale, poor patient outcomes and satisfaction. The
organization may also suffer loss of the business since it will not be able to survive in the
competitive market.
One constant change that keeps healthcare organizations seeking new strategies
continually is the illness trends. Different illnesses crop up every day and all of them require
different attention, resources and expertise.
