Healthcare Management Capstone
Western Governor University
A 1. Identify one of the following healthcare management opportunities you encountered
in one of the previous performance assessments completed in this program:
One of the applications I had the opportunity to encounter was Business Strategy C714 as a
strategic planning manager. This course placed me in the mindset of using various tools and
techniques to improve effectiveness and quality and help organize and achieve goals within an
organization.
A 2. Identify one of the following professional lenses: payer, manager, technology
professional, or clinical professional.
During this Capstone task, I will be focusing on the professional lens as a Strategic Planning
Manager. The Strategic Planning Manager will be responsible for planning and directing an
organization’s long-range goals and strategy. Additionally, it ensures that the goals are meet and
co-aliening with the approved budget.
A 3. Summarize the opportunity selected in part A1 from the perspective of the
professional lens selected in part A2.
As the Strategic Planning Manager, I was giving the task to collect and analyze information
needed to formulate a strategic planning process for a company and provide strategic
recommendations to senior executives. I first had the task to identify and describe the
organizational culture within the company. Also, reviewing the appropriateness of the current
mission statement and vision statement. In addition, the evaluation and discussion of the internal
and external influences on the strategic decision-making process of the company. Also, had to
include a SWOT analysis to identify internal and external factors that need to be considered in
developing a competitive strategy for the company. The SWOT analysis will be used to justify
the strategic recommendation. Lastly, I had to give a PowerPoint presentation to senior
executives. The presentation showcases the strategic recommendation for the company.
, A4ai. Provide a process overview by doing the following:
a. Describe the process as it is being performed today.
First and foremost, one has to identify the position in which the company is currently sitting on.
One must first have a clear vision to achieve the goals. Start defining both short-term and long-
term goals. Gather all the information needed to start to get a clear view of the current position.
With that information in mind, once the strategic position is established one must gather the
people who will be involved in the planning process. Then, with SWOT analysis will be able to
identify the clear strengths and weakness of the company. Once identified, you will work on a
new set of goals and development of a plan to have the company heading in a positive direction.
Once the strategic plan is formulated and it is aligned with the company’s mission, you can begin
working on the plan. Lastly, executing the plan and constantly monitoring the performance.
A4ai. Describe the operational environment.
The operational environment includes several facets. The organization has different stakeholders
(employees, distributors, vendors, and Board of Directors) these stakeholders must have an
understanding of the process that will be implemented. Teamwork is key to success when
undergoing a strategic plan, particularly when new systems or processes are going to be
implemented. Forming a participatory group involving all stakeholders (communication teams)
helps the hospital align its vision for successful new opportunities.
A4aii. Outline the sequence of events of the process.
The first event that has to take place is the identification of the current position. In order to
outline a strategy, the strategic planning manager and the team have to highlight the current
position. To do that the strategic planning manager has to develop a set of teams that can all work
efficiently towards the same goal. Once the current state of the company is established then
defining short-term and long-term objectives can be established. One has to always make sure
that when identifying the objectives, is to have measurable and realistic goals. It is also important
to look back to the company’s mission and corporate values to insure are align with the core
