Problems, Pathways, & Pull-Thru: A Practical Guide to Sustainable Healthcare Innovation Innovation in healthcare isn't just about generating ideas; it's about systemically implementing these innovations to enhance both competitive advantage and mission fulfillment. This calls for a deep understanding of problems, choosing the right pathways, and ensuring #innovations are not just introduced but woven into our operations. Understanding the Real Problems: True innovation begins with accurately defining the problems we aim to solve. This alignment with our organizational goals ensures that each innovation directly enhances outcomes and optimizes resources. Choosing the Right Pathways: Once we define our problems, selecting the right pathways for innovation is critical. Whether through technology advancements like AI or through systems improvements, the choice must align with our long-term strategic goals. Our portfolio approach to innovation—balancing incremental changes with a few groundbreaking initiatives—dynamically improves the probability of meaningful success. As #PeterDrucker famously said, "the only legitimate business functions are marketing and innovation." This perspective is crucial, emphasizing that our innovations should serve clear purposes. Effective Implementation and Sustainability: Pulling through innovation involves more than launch; it demands that new solutions become integral to our daily operations. Building systems and processes that support the ongoing use and evolution of innovations ensures they deliver continuous value. The Role of Collaboration in Innovation: The complexity of today's #healthcare landscape means no single organization can excel in isolation. Effective partnerships—with industry, community organizations, government, and payers—are crucial. These collaborations not only enhance our capabilities but also strengthen trust among all stakeholders, which is essential for sustained competitive advantage and mission effectiveness. Navigating with a Guide: In navigating the intricate paths of innovation, having a guide—someone who understands both the internal and external environments—is invaluable. This guide can help steer efforts by providing insights that are both practical and visionary, ensuring that innovations align with broader industry trends and patient needs. Inspiring a Bright Future and Conclusion: Mastering practical innovation offers a promising path forward. By relentlessly focusing on practical, not just disruptive innovations, we create a future where healthcare not only meets today's challenges but also anticipates tomorrow's opportunities. The journey of innovation in healthcare is continuous and complex. By accurately defining problems, choosing appropriate pathways, and ensuring effective pull-through, we can transform challenges into opportunities for #growth and improvement. Let's move forward with the imagination and practicality needed to make healthcare better for everyone.

Mastering Your Mindset: Portfolio Thinking in Healthcare Innovation In healthcare, adopting a strategy from financial portfolio management offers opportunities to increase both ROI and innovation efficacy. Just as financial experts balance investments to maximize returns and minimize risks, healthcare leaders can apply a portfolio mindset to maintain steady incremental improvements and strategically bet on future innovations. The Essence of Portfolio Thinking in Healthcare Innovation in #healthcare should be a calculated strategy aligned with organizational goals. By adopting a portfolio approach, we can diversify innovation efforts across three primary categories: 1. Internal and Incremental: These #innovations, essential for continuous improvement, should comprise about 80% of our efforts, focusing on refining systems and processes that directly impact patient safety, clinical outcomes, consumer experience, and business results. 2. Hybrid: Around 10% to 15% of our efforts should push beyond current capabilities, involving collaborations with technology firms, academic institutions, and cross-industry partners to introduce fresh ideas into our practices. 3. External and Potentially Disruptive: The remaining 5% should be reserved for pursuing high-risk, high-reward innovations that could potentially disrupt the healthcare landscape. These ventures are deeply embedded in expansive ecosystems beyond our direct control and require careful consideration and #StrategicPlanning. Balancing Risks and Returns Balancing these elements requires a reimagined approach and support structures that may not exist within healthcare organizations. Each segment of the innovation portfolio serves a distinct purpose, contributing to a holistic strategy that supports both stability and advancement. The Goal of Portfolio Thinking The goal is to optimize the impact and feasibility of innovations. By strategically allocating resources and #leadership bandwidth, healthcare systems can address immediate needs and position themselves for future success. This approach ensures resilience and adaptability, enabling incremental changes that enhance day-to-day operations and embracing disruptive innovations that pave the way for future advancements. Conclusion As healthcare leaders, our mission extends beyond the treatment of disease and championing health and well-being; it involves steering innovation to significantly benefit and further serve those we care for. By mastering the art of portfolio thinking, we elevate what is possible and steward a future that is more probable. Reflect and Respond: 1. What strategies can your organization implement to ensure a balanced innovation portfolio that addresses both immediate needs and future challenges? 2. How can your organization leverage partnerships to enhance innovation capabilities without losing sight of its core mission? #LeadWithImagination #BestIdeasWin #HealthcareLeadership #HealthcareInnovation

Healthcare innovation is a topic that has been on my mind lately. With so many new ideas and products emerging, it's important to consider the impact they have on our healthcare delivery system. As innovators, we want to make a difference and improve the lives of those we serve. Recently, I came across the book Innovating with Impact by Ted Ladd and Alessandro Lanteri, and it's been an excellent read. One key takeaway I want to share is the importance of considering the societal context and the issue at hand when proposing an innovation. It's also crucial to use recognized process tools in defining the problem and to identify the societal themes that the innovation touches. By doing these things, we can achieve the greatest impact. I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on these steps and whether you find them valid and useful. Let's continue to innovate with impact and make a difference in healthcare. #healthcare #innovation #impact

Does Innovation in Healthcare Even Matter? #Innovation and making things better has always been close to my heart and coded into my DNA. Yet I remember the moment, shortly after stepping into a new leadership role, when the enormity of what lay ahead was beginning to hit me. As I drove home one evening, reflecting on my conversation with our new CEO, "Innovation, that is the legacy I want to leave behind from whatever time I am called to serve." Great I thought, an overused, ill-defined, buzzword (at least as I experienced it over my career in healthcare. This conversation was a turning point, a moment of both reckoning and reconciliation with my love-hate relationship with the concept of innovation. As #PeterDrucker famously stated, "There are only two legitimate business functions, marketing and innovation." In healthcare, this translates into the dual imperative to get customers (grow our business) and keep them (by improving our service and services to them). But it's about so much more than that. Sandy Shugart, in the foreword to my book, "Lead with Imagination," succinctly captures this sentiment: "When hospital systems accept the status quo and perform below their full potential, you can count the cost in human lives." This profound statement reminds us of the heavy responsibility that lies on our shoulders. Why does innovation matter so much in #healthcare? It’s because most leaders in this field are driven by a deep, missional motivation—a desire to make a real difference in people’s lives. They come to work every day not just to manage facilities but to lead communities towards better health. Yet, they face a harsh reality—a distressed and divided environment where financial pressures cannot be ignored. Here lies the "Art of the And": integrating mission with margin, idealism with pragmatism. In this seven-part blog series, derived from our upcoming strategy white paper, "Innovation: Systems, Structures, and Processes," we'll explore a re-imagined and robust approach to innovation in healthcare. We will consider among other topics: 1. The power of incremental innovation, focusing on core operations as the bedrock of improvement (even if not great marketing or cool sounding) 2. The leverage of a portfolio mindset that yields both a return on investment and further “returns on innovation” 3. The challenge and yet necessity of a systemic and engaging approach to innovation across the organization (and through the silo’s) that is crucial to long term success, and particular so with the advance of #AI (likely making AI more risk than benefit if not approached in this way as culture) As we embark on this critical exploration together, challenging and championing a future where effective healthcare innovation is both a standard practice and beacon of hope, I hope you will jump right in and add the diversity of thought needed to lessen the cost of the status quo. #BestIdeasWin #LeadWithImagination #Hospital #HealthcareSystem
