Shadow Health : The Vision And Direction Of The Company

I would advise the CEO that to better serve the company’s desire we would start with a strategic plan by setting goals and objectives. It would be best to elicit the opinions of every staff member on how they feel about the company’s goal. After listening to the staff opinions on how best to implement the goals, a plan is to be put in place detailing the steps by steps on how to achieve each tasks. I would emphasize to the CEO the importance of setting goals and communicating them effectively to the staff members, especially those who will be the managers. Additionally, the CEO is to consider the needs of each individual in the company. It is important to address both the task and the needs of the employees ( Phillips & Gully, 2014).

Hello Frances, excellent thoughts on your initial post. I felt the same way too. I was nervous and overwhelmed when I started this course. I thought my assessment skills were thorough. However, with this course, I realized that I still have room for improvement. I agree it is essential to treat our patients holistically. Nurses must include the patient’s culture and values, family and social roles, self-care behaviors, job related stress, developmental tasks, and failures and frustration of life in their health assessments (Jarvis, 2012). Additionally, The Shadow Health assessment with Ms. Tina Jones was a great learning experience. With Ms. Tina Jones I achieved the course objective of communicating effectively, writing my documentations accurately,

CEO: Serve as the team leader and final decision maker for the company. The CEO is the face of the organization and will be the primary voice for any public statements made.

Communication - Communication is very important to our well being as a company. The CEO will only be seen or heard from when there is an issue with business or there is a big decision to be made that can not be made by the workers and managers themselves. They make decisions and give instruction through our CFO who then distributes that information between to the personal assistant. The information then goes to the floor supervisors and the DC. From there it can go to the regular employees and therapist so that everyone is on the same page.

Employees are more engaged when they feel that their efforts are directed toward a vision they can believe in. Share the company’s vision and goals with employees, and inform them about the organization’s strategy and challenges. Let each employee know how his

Columnist Kouzes and Posner stated, “As counterintuitive as it might seem, then, the best way to lead people into the future is to connect with them deeply in the present” (Kouzes and Posner, 2009, To Lead, Create a Shared Vision, para 7). A written vision statement is not valuable if the words lack vehemence. Shared vision implies that each member of the team or business is active and inventive. Actions become applicable when goals and objectives are clearly identified. Present activity will set the path for where the business is headed. The term shared means individuals are united.

Secondly, the Chief Executive Officer is an organizational leader following standards of conducts that refer “the officer reasonably believes to be in the corporation’s best interest” (Thompson, 2008, p. 17). A strong leader can only lead when that leader knows what direction they are going. For example, one activity for distributing from centralized leadership is “a structural layer that forms the overall frame and direction for knowledge creation in the organization”; therefore, knowledge of proper management skills is important (Jain & Jeppesen, 2013, p. 349). To overcome a leaderless organization an employee or manager can take initiative by setting department goals that include a mission and a vision. Then, strategically formulate organizational goals that support the corporation’s best interests. All in all, an organizations department management team can create a strategic management process per department that supports the organizations best interest.

To overcome these two challenges I had to sell the team on my vision while listening to their ideas. As a team leader, I can assert that achieving my goals is paramount. Yet this doesn’t denote that I would extensively pursue my goals or blindly follow my objectives at all costs. For that reason, I was open to their opinions no matter how different theirs may be from mine. I am proud to say that the outcome of this stage exceeded my expectations; the team was more motivated and evolved from being a group of strangers to a united team with common goals.

Have a clear focus on vision and aims. Understand where the organisation/team is and wants to be.

In order to be successful in the long range, the CEO's strategy must encompass countless factors. He must devise a plan to grow the business in the face of competitors, not only from within the United States but from any and every region of today's global economy. The CEO calls the plays for a team of tens (and sometimes hundreds) of thousands of workers. All of the actions of every employee and every aspect of the business must be coordinated and integrated to produce the cars, computers or CAT scanners that yield profits to the company. It is the CEO who is responsible for that integration.
