The implementation of self-managed teams in health care.
Self-managed teams are one of the most effective tools now available for tapping the unrealized potential of health care organizations. Executives and managers involved with self-managed teams are speaking of new levels of productivity, new commitment among workers, and new optimism about meeting the challenges of competition. GSH's ability to create peak-performance teams will certainly give the hospital a critical competitive advantage over competing hospitals in the Dayton area. Success requires commitment and patience. Health care organizations that believe in the power of worker participation will not regret following the path to a self-managed team environment.
