SHOW LESS Identifying analysis techniques for assessing competitive advantage is important for building health care strategy. Sustaining health care competitive advantage requires that leaders understand environmental demands to assist with minimizing weakness and threats from the external environment. This assessment provides you with an opportunity to examine your health care environment to determine whether what is being accomplished in your organization, department, team, community project, or other care setting is making a positive difference. By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria: Competency 1: Evaluate qualities and skills that promote effective leadership within health care organizations. Analyze the leadership characteristics and skills most desired in the person leading potential performance improvement projects, taking both an appreciative inquiry (AI) and a strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) approach. Competency 2: Apply strategies to lead high-performing health care teams to meet organizational quality and safety goals. Synthesize stories and evidence about times when a care setting performed at its best with regard to quality and safety goals. Conduct a SWOT analysis of a care setting, with respect to quality and safety goals. Describe an area of concern identified in a SWOT analysis—relevant to a care setting’s mission, vision, and values—that should be improved. Compare the AI and SWOT approaches to analysis with regard to data gathering and interactions with others. Competency 3: Apply cultural, ethical, and regulatory considerations to leadership decision making. Propose positive, attainable quality and safety improvement goals for a care setting. Competency 5: Communicate with stakeholders and constituencies to build collaborative partnerships and create inclusive work environments. Communicate analyses clearly and in a way that demonstrates professionalism and respect for stakeholders and colleagues.
