VGP's Pathway Planning: A Road Map to Success
Overview
Pathway Planning is a system for diagnosing and assessing your hospital’s business health. A finished Pathway Plan is analogous to a treatment plan for your hospital. Like medicine, treatment plans are only useful if they are followed.
What we have discovered is that most hospitals are great at diagnosing their problems but lousy at ongoing assessment and following a plan to fix what ails them. Pathway Planning addresses this shortcoming. It makes your mission, vision, and values an interactive part of everyday planning and action.
Please join us for a unique virtual workshop Feb 25th-26th, for this unique educational event that will leave you feeling exhilarated about your practice’s future! The curriculum is full of opportunities to build planning, marketing, and tracking skills. The workshop is designed to be engaging and will focus on individual elements to make you into a more effective leader.
VGP's Pathway Planning workshop is available at no charge exclusively to our VGP and VGP Elite members. We look forward to hosting you at this virtual event!
