title: The personnel touch in mapping strategies.
abstract: Human resources departments are playing an increasingly important role in planning their hospitals' long-term competitive strategies, according to this year's MODERN HEALTHCARE survey of employee benefits and human resources issues. A human resources executive is a member of the strategic planning team at 52% of the hospitals that responded to the survey, and the human resources department assists in planning at half of the other hospitals.
