I chose this video from my own organization, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center to show how a non-profit organization uses specific strategies to shape the future of our mission. It is a short video explaining how we have a department specifically designed to collaborate across our organization with leadership, employees, patients, and caregivers to share our daily decisions and innovate our healthcare delivery. Every year we are continually looking at what we do and how we can keep up with the ever changing healthcare industry with government regulations and patient perspectives. This team identifies opportunities and moves quickly on them, keeping in mind the ultimate goal of patient experience that is incorporated within our mission. Our Strategy and Innovation team empowers physicians and researchers as they provide patient care and conduct in groundbreaking research. MSKCC is continually developing, formulating, and monitoring our strategy in the context of the external environment (including competitors) and our internal dynamics. We take our strategic opportunities and turn them into actionable plans.
