Book excerpt: Radical Advice for Reinventing Talent--and HR Most executives today recognize the competitive advantage of human capital, and yet the talent practices their organizations use are stuck in the twentieth century. Typical talent-planning and HR processes are designed for predictable environments, traditional ways of getting work done, and organizations where "lines and boxes" still define how people are managed. As work and organizations have become more fluid--and business strategy is no longer about planning years ahead but about sensing and seizing new opportunities and adapting to a constantly changing environment--companies must deploy talent in new ways to remain competitive. Turning conventional views on their heads, talent and leadership experts Ram Charan, Dominic Barton, and Dennis Carey provide leaders with a new and different playbook for acquiring, managing, and deploying talent--for today's agile, digital, analytical, technologically driven strategic environment--and for creating the HR function that business needs. Filled with examples of forward-thinking companies that have adopted radical new approaches to talent (such as ADP, Amgen, BlackRock, Blackstone, Haier, ING, Marsh, Tata Communications, Telenor, and Volvo), as well as the juggernauts and the startups of Silicon Valley, this book shows leaders how to bring the rigor that they apply to financial capital to their human capital--elevating HR to the same level as finance in their organizations. Providing deep, expert insight and advice for what needs to change and how to change it, this is the definitive book for reimagining and creating a talent-driven organization that wins.

Book excerpt: Transform your healthcare practice with a prescription for success. What if your healthcare practice was a place where everyone-administrators, care providers, and patients-felt good? A place where burnout, job dissatisfaction, or staff turnover simply didn't exist? A place where you and your team show up every day energized, fulfilled, and inspired to deliver the highest quality of care? For too long, the healthcare system has been built exclusively around the needs of patients, at the expense of the mental and physical health of the very people who are expected to care for them. It's time for a People First approach-one where your finances, people, and business initiatives aren't suffering at the expense of patient needs. In this essential guide to organizational design for the healthcare sector, operational leadership expert Amy Lafko shows you how to build a thriving practice by focusing on the people who keep it running. You'll discover how to: ● Provide clarity around organizational mission, vision, values, and goals ● Engage, align, and empower teams ● Enhance communication and trust ● Decrease staff turnover and increase buy-in ● Boost profit margins ● Eliminate employee and leadership burnout ● Improve patient satisfaction ● Design a sustainable strategy for growth. By flipping the focus of your organization from the people who need care to those who provide it, your people will be armed with the tools and support necessary to bring their best to your patients. Whether you're in the process of mapping out your private practice, already running a successful practice, or are experiencing turmoil within your healthcare organization, you can set yourself on a path toward increased staff and patient satisfaction, improved productivity, and enhanced efficiency. People First is your prescription for success.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Real leadership that leads to high engagement, higher performance, and a culture of accountability As president and CEO of Scripps Health, one of America's most prestigious health systems, Chris Van Gorder presided over a dramatic turnaround, catapulting Scripps from near bankruptcy to a dominant market position. While hospitals and health systems nationwide have laid people off or are closing their doors, Scripps is financially healthy, has added thousands of employees (even with a no-layoff philosophy), and has developed a reputation as a top employer. What are the secrets to this remarkable story? In The Front-Line Leader, Chris Van Gorder candidly shares his own incredible story, from police officer to CEO, and the leadership philosophy that drives all of his decisions and actions: people come first. Van Gorder began his unlikely career as a California police officer, which deeply instilled in him a sense of social responsibility, honesty, and public service. After being injured on the job and taking an early retirement, Van Gorder had to reinvent himself, taking a job as a hospital security director, a job that would change his life. Through hard work and determination, he rose to executive ranks, eventually becoming CEO of Scripps. But he never forgot his own roots and powerful work ethic, or the time when he was a security officer and a CEO would not make eye contact with him. Van Gorder leads from the front lines, making it a priority to know his employees and customers at every level. His values learned on the force—protecting the community, educating citizens, developing caring relationships, and ultimately doing the right thing—shape his approach to business. As much as companies talk about accountability, managers seldom understand what practical steps to take to achieve an ethic of service that makes accountability meaningful. The Front-Line Leader outlines specific tactics and steps anyone can use starting today to take responsibility, inspire others, and achieve breakout results for their organizations. Van Gorder reveals how a no-layoff philosophy led to higher accountability, how his own attention to seemingly minor details spurred larger change, and how his own high standards for himself and his team improved morale and productivity. From general strategy to the tiny, everyday steps leaders can take to create the kind of culture and accountability that translates into major competitive advantage, The Front-Line Leader charts a path to better leadership and a more engaged, higher-performing organization.

Book excerpt: Horowitz offers the latest addition to the deluge of morally-centred business tomes. In one way, it's an overturning of traditional corporate wisdom -- see your competitors as your allies, not your adversaries, Horowitz suggests -- but it's also something we've been hearing an awful lot of lately: build meaningful relationships with your customers, view your employees as your partners and so on. Nevertheless, the arguments are all sound and illustrated with the customer-obsessed success stories of ventures like Saturn and Nordstrom. Horowitz is at his best when displaying his canny understanding of the media world, advising how to fit your business's message with the media's need to produce timely, relevant stories.
