Are financial pressures, nursing turnover, or patient and staff safety issues keeping you up at night? 

Healthcare systems across the country are facing these same challenges. Some are resorting to layoffs and other drastic measures,                                but there is a better way. 

Paul O'Neill, Sr. adopted the framework of habitual excellence and the use of "theoretical-limit thinking and systems," which enabled Alcoa to reduce recorded injury rates and lost workdays, saving the organization millions of dollars. All while increasing revenue by nearly $20 billion dollars. 


This framework has proven to be successful in healthcare organizations.

Duke HomeCare & Hospice reduced nursing turnover from 75% to 19% in just one year
Prisma Health rapidly improved its Leapfrog grades, achieving A's in 3 of their hospitals

During this two-day executive seminar, leaders from The Leapfrog Group, Prisma Health, Alcoa, and Value Capture will walk you through how they have applied this framework and why focusing on safety provides a foundation for habitual excellence in all dimensions of an organization's performance, including quality, accessibility, morale, and cost.

*Please note that this seminar is intended for health care CEOs and other members of the C-suite or board members that they choose to bring. If you have questions about whether this seminar is right for you, please contact  Courtney Dunning before registering.  

After attending this seminar, you will be able to: 
  • Understand how the framework of habitual excellence has been applied in healthcare to solve organizations’ most fundamental challenges
  • Identify the difference between "theoretical limits" and traditional goal setting
  • Discuss the unique key role senior leaders play in achieving zero harm
  • Discover new peer-to-peer connections
  • Design an action plan to help you and your organization take the next steps toward habitual excellence
