How to motivate physicians and develop a physician champion.
Physician champions and leaders are essential to the success ofa CCIS implementation. Physician champions or leaders can be developed by recognizing the qualities of a leader and cultivating them. Finally, sustainable second-order change is facilitated bv a transformational leader--a leader who is charismatic, considers individual characteristics and needs of the constituency, and stimulates the constituency intellectually. A transformational leader does not accept the status quo but rather is continually questioning and offering constructive problem solutions. Transformational leadership may require more patience, time, tolerance, and resources, but it is worth the effort.
