Organizational Behavior and Management in Health and Medicine
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-031-61822-2 (ISBN)
This comprehensive textbook on healthcare organizational behavior and management uniquely bridges theory and practice, directing significant attention toward operationalization in health and medical settings. This blend of theory and practice differentiates the content of this book from that of related academic and professional books that tend to discuss theory at length with limited attention being directed toward practical applications. This approach ultimately affords readers with a working knowledge of the subject matter which must be mastered to successfully operate healthcare organizations and a real-world skill set for use in practice.
The contents of the text encompass a fairly broad spectrum of organizational behavior and management within the context of the healthcare industry and its associated organizations. Among the topics covered:
- Leadership in Health and Medicine
- Motivation in Health and Medicine
- Communication in Health and Medicine
- Strategy in Health and Medicine
- Ethics and Social Responsibility in Health and Medicine
- Organizational Culture in Health and Medicine
- Groups and Teams in Health and Medicine
- Power and Politics in Health and Medicine
Beyond its efficient presentation of core facets of organizational behavior and management, the book features practical insights in each chapter from the authors' experiences as leaders at a health system. These passages share real-world insights, often involving unique applications, innovative thinking, and other creative perspectives from practice. These viewpoints are invaluable for helping readers to ground the theoretical overviews presented in each chapter, bolstering knowledge and understanding. A glossary of organizational behavior and management terminology is also included.
Organizational Behavior and Management in Health and Medicine serves as a primer featuring principles and practices with intensive application and operational guidance. The text, with its learning objectives, chapter summaries, key terms, and exercises, is ideally suited for professors and students of health administration, medicine, nursing, and allied health. The book also can serve as a refresher for healthcare executives and managers (e.g., administrators, nurses, physicians) and as a useful reference for anyone with an interest in learning about administrative practices in health and medical settings.
