In The Florence Prescription From Accountability to Ownership, Joe Tye delivers an inspirational, educational and entertaining novel. Florence Nightingale, founder of modern day hospital, nursing and hospital administration mysteriously returns to help Carol Jean, a consultant, help Memorial Medical Center rebuild its "invisible architecture"
David Altman, Ph.D, Executive VP for Research, Innovation & Product Development states, "In this story, Carol Jean Hawtrey reminds us that in these unpredictable times, organizations need leadership in every corner, not just the corner office. Everyone - I mean everyone - who works in a hospital can benefit from reading this book. Every healthcare leader should be striving to build a culture of ownership in his or her organization, and this book is the clearest and most helpful guide I've ever seen for achieving that cultural transformation."
The Florence Prescription is about investing in people -a healthcare organization's greatest asset - and inspiring people to think and act as innovators, entrepreneurs and owners. There are 8 essential characteristics for building a culture of ownership: Commitment, Engagement, Passon, Initiative, Stewardship, Belonging, Fellowship, Pride - these are also ingredients for personal success and happiness.
