Core Concepts in Strategy: Terms and Scenarios
[WLOs: 1, 2] [CLOs: 1, 3, 4, 6]
Prior to taking this quiz, review Chapters 7, 8, and 9 in your course textbook, Strategic
Management for Healthcare Organizations.

Quiz Overview

In your textbook, Spath et al. (2022) define strategic management as “steering and managing
an HSO so that it can fulfill its mission and vision and sustain its impact for the long term. It
involves deciding the direction in which the organization should go and what services the
organization should offer. It involves identifying emerging market forces and how they may
affect the future of the organization” (Section 1.1, para. 1).

Strategic planning in the healthcare industry requires individuals or teams to integrate
information from various sources. Effective planning also involves communicating these plans
to employees, the community, and the board of trustees or directors. Healthcare organizations
exist to serve community needs and rely on the community’s ongoing engagement and support
to sustain their operations.
