title: Extreme make-over: group practice edition.
abstract: Without culture change, there is little hope of enduring improvement in organizational performance. That's why the Mayo Clinic has launched a grassroots initiative to integrate innovation into employees' daily work. The first step is to diagnose your current culture, then ask what it means to change. As an administrative leader, you may be among the few people-if not the only person-in your organization in the position to diagnose your culture and determine action steps to transform it.
