Once a management official understands the causal factors associated with a problem, it is time to identify and explore possible (feasible) solutions. However, there are managers who have a tendency to singularly focus on a particular solution to a problem and give little or no consideration to other viable alternatives. This is likely due to the manager's belief that he or she fully understands the nature and scope of the problem and what the correct course of action should be. This decision is typically without having analyzed the causal factors associated with the problem at hand.

Why do you believe this phenomenon exists? What do you perceive to be the negative consequences associated with this practice in healthcare organizations?

Your comments will be graded on how well they meet the Discussion Requirements posted under "Before You Begin."
Once a solution has been decided, it is time to plan its implementation. One of the keys to a successful solution implementation is the anticipation of those barriers or obstacles which are likely to occur as the plan is rolled out. For instance, barriers might result from conflicting organizational priorities; limited resources (finances, personnel, equipment, supplies, etc.); economic constraints; internal politics; personnel resistance; and so forth. Through the thoughtful consideration of potential barriers, health care managers can be better prepared to deal with these obstacles should they present themselves.

Provide background information on a problem you identified and weren't able to successful resolve; the solution which was ultimately implemented to address the problem, but was unsuccessful; the obstacles you "anticipated" experiencing while rolling out the planned solution; the obstacles you "actually" experienced while rolling out the planned solution; how you overcame or failed to overcome the obstacles; and the ultimate outcome of your planned solution.

What could you have done differently to achieve a more desired outcome?
