Healthcare, like many rapidly changing and complex business environments, is presenting unique challenges and opportunities with ongoing disruption and innovation, both externally in the industry and internally within the organization. This environment requires a new mind-set and dynamic thinking for leaders responsible for projects. A comprehensive approach with a strong project management foundation, along with lean, Six Sigma, and  change management, presents the only alternative for a sustainable and successful project delivery strategy.

At the conclusion of this session, participants will be able to:
(1) differentiate between project management, lean, Six Sigma and change management practices for their optimum application;
(2) discuss how to manage strategic goals and requirements in a fast-changing project environment typical of disruption and innovation.
