Culture Bytes: The Readiness Myth

Send us a Message

In this short solo episode of Culture Bytes, Sue discusses the concept of readiness for culture transformation in healthcare organizations. She emphasizes the importance of continually strengthening the strategic pillars of people, service, and quality, and highlights that this work should always be a priority. Sue explains that instead of assessing readiness, it is more relevant to assess the change challenges that organizations will face in achieving their improvement goals. She also emphasizes the need for commitment to these core strategies and the potential consequences of not prioritizing them.
