Overview – Seven Leadership Leverage Points• Framework

– Environment– Infrastructure

• Achieve Strategic Goals• Build Capacity• Manage Local Improvement

Leverage PointsExplained

• 1. Establish and oversee Specific System-level Aims at the Highest Governance level.

• 2. Develop an Executable strategy to achieve the system-level Aims and Oversee their execution at the highest Governance Level.

• 3. Channel Leadership Attention to System Level Improvement: Personal Leadership, Leadership systems and Transparency

• 4. Put Patients and Families on the Improvement Team

• 5. Make the Chief Financial Officer a Quality Champion

• 6. Engage Physicians• 7. Build Improvement Capability

Leverage Point One:

• Establish and Oversee Specific System-Level Aims at the Highest Governance Level – Establish solid measures of system-level performance• Hospital mortality rates• Cost per adjusted admission• Adverse drug events per 1,000 doses

– Ability to track monthly• Adopt specific aims for breakthrough improvement of those measures

• Establish effective oversight of those aims at the highest levels of governance and leadership

• Commit personally to these aims and communicate them to all stakeholders in way that engenders heartfelt commitment to achieving them.

Leverage Point One

• Whole Systems-Measure– Measures provide an excellent example of a balanced set of World-Class, system level (“Big Dot”) quality performance measures• Measures are intended to complement an organization’s existing– Balanced Scorecards– Measurement dashboards– Performance measurement systems

– Toyota Specifications• Breakthrough performance• Performance that exceeds previous believed “limits”

Leverage Point One Summary

• Responsibility of adopting aims and overseeing measures cannot be the sole responsibility of the board

• Aims must be focused and realistic• Data feedback is important for boards to track whether there is improvement or not. – Use consistent operation definitions– Be timely– Benchmark against other organizations

Leverage Point Two: Develop an Executable Strategy to Achieve

the System-Level Aims• IHI’s Execution of Strategic Improvement Initiatives– Four Critical Steps for Leaders

• Senior Team and Board must adopt a few focused breakthrough quality and safety aims.

• Senior Team must develop plan “rational portfolio of projects” with scale and paced needed to achieve

• Key projects must be resourced with capable leaders both large projects and at day-to-day microsystem level

• Management team must monitor and respond to data from the field at multiple levels in order to steer the execution of the strategy.

Leverage Point Two Summary• Framework for execution

– System-Level aims have a powerful influence on choices of projects.

– Ask the following questions: • How does what you’re already working on in your department support the system-level aim?

•What do we need to do in order to accomplish the aim?

– Large complex projects must be led by capable leaders who are given the time to do the projects or they will be unsuccessful.

Leverage Point Two Summary

• Successful leadership system for execution has two critical components:– Obtain data and feedback regularly on how: •The strategic project portfolio is being executed

•The strategy is working

– Have senior executives regularly review and respond to timely, useful data on these two questions.

Leverage Point Three: Channel Leadership Attention to System-Level Improvement• Personal Leadership

• Leadership Systems• Transparency

Leverage Point Three: Channel Leadership Attention to System-Level Improvement• Common practice:

– Executives constantly send signals about what they believe to be important – Some are NEGATIVE:•Arriving late to meetings•Starting meetings late•Not asking questions•Taking phone calls/check e-mail during the meeting

•Leaving early

Leverage Point Three: Channel Leadership Attention to System-Level Improvement• Personal Leadership

– Prioritize calendars• Change personal schedules to make time for data review, meetings with project leaders, and other activities that support the work.

– Conduct Project Reviews• Senior executives send powerful signals by personally performing reviews with project teams; asking about aims, connecting the work of the team to the overall organization aims, focusing on results, helping the team overcome barriers, and providing encouragement.

– Tell Stories• Positive organizational “buzz” can be created – both informal and formal communications. Stories reinforce the culture changes and practices needed. Stories encourage more rapid adoption of needed patterns and practices.

Leverage Point Three: Channel Leadership Attention to System-Level Improvement• Leadership Systems

– Personal leadership must be supported by good leadership systems•The interrelated set of structures and processes by which leaders work. – Senior Executives could remake their calendars to include project meetings, conduct team reviews, and tell great stories that reinforce the desired culture changes and behaviors.

– What performance data is “top of mind”

Leverage Point Three: Channel Leadership Attention to System-Level Improvement• Finance

– Last Month’s Operating Margin– Customer Satisfaction Scores

• Nursing– Mortality Rate– Number of Hospital Acquired infections– Number of Decubitus ulcers

• Quality/Safety– Joint commission National Patient Safety goals

– Number of Surgical Site Infections– Number of Core Measures met.

Leverage Point Three: Channel Leadership Attention to System-Level Improvement• Transparency

– The fundamental force behind this method is simple and demonstrated in the following slides. •Public (Regulators, media, community, patients) are paying attention to all of your quality and safety performance data. – People inside the organization will tend to work with greater urgency to improve performance.

Leverage Point Three: Channel Leadership Attention to System-Level Improvement• All publically Reported data

now – – Joint Commission – www.jointcommission.org

– Leap Frog – www.leapfroggroup.org– HCAHPS – www.cms.gov– Health grades – www.healthgrades.com

Leverage Point Three Summary

• Health system leaders frequently express reservations about transparency because they fear loosing patients to other competitors.

• Recent studies of transparency do not support the fears of hospital marketing departments of shifts in market share and volumes, even when reports show the hospital in a bad light.

• There are no substantial findings to increased malpractice claims or loss of philanthropic monies when performance is poor.

Leverage Point Four: Put Patients and Families on the

Improvement Team• Get the right team on the bus “patients”– Real power and influence– Use wisdom and experience to redesign and improve care systems

• This principle aligns with the American Hospital Association (AHA) approach to Patient-and-Family Centered care:– All people (patients, families, and staff) will be treated with dignity and respect

– Health care providers will communicate and share complete and unbiased information with patients and families in ways that are affirming and useful

– Patients and families participate in experiences that enhance control and independence

– Collaboration among patients, family members, and providers occur in policy and program development and professional education, as well as in the delivery of care.

Leverage Point Four Summary

• Leverage four is an important force for driving the achievements and measuring results.

• It has the greatest potential to drive the long-term transformation of the entire organization.

Leverage Five: Make the Chief

Financial Officer a Quality Champion

• Why?– Connection between quality and business performance is still weak.

– Combination of pay-for-performance– Major changes to Medicare reimbursement

– Elimination of increase payments for “never events”

• These have placed quality and payment on the radar of many CFO’s

CFO Cost Reduction Efforts:

Where other Industries’CFO’s Go to Reduce Costs

Level Five Summary

• Health Care Organizations would be far more likely to achieve dramatic improvement in system-level measures of financial and quality performance if CFO’s were to become strong drivers of quality based elimination of waste, and if their commitment were translated deeply into the budgeting, capital investment, and innovation and learning systems of an organization.

Leverage Point Seven: BuildImprovement Capability

• Leaders must devote resources to establish capable leaders of improvement in every microsystem. – “Quality is everyone’s responsibility”

– W. Edwards Deming

• More that 90 percent of leaders believe their performance problems can be traced to failed executions strategies.

Leverage Point Seven: BuildImprovement Capability

• Cited Leadership problems:– Short attention span– Inadequate resourcing– Too little executive oversight and monitoring

– Failure to address “political” problems among professional groups.

Leverage Point Seven: BuildImprovement Capability

• Capabilities required of senior leaders to drive system-level improvement – requires both the ability to know, use, and teach:– The model of improvement and small-scale rapid tests of change.

– A coherent improvement strategy such as the Toyota Production System.

– Concepts and practices in flow management.– Sophisticated practices in flow management. – Concepts and practices of scale-up spread of improvements

– Concepts and practices of safety systems.

Self Assessment Tool for System-Level Results

• Discussion and action tool designed to help– Administration– Physicians– Nursing leaders

• Used to:– Design and plan work leading to significant reduction in one or two system level measures• Mortality rates• Harm rates• Nosocomial infection rates

2. Develop an Executable Strategy to Achieve the System-Level Aims and Oversee their Execution at the Highest Governance Level

Senior Leadership team has developed a plan to achieve the aims that is focused on the right drivers, and had the necessary scale and pace.

Senior Leadership team has resourced the projects that are necessary to achieve the aim with effective leaders.

Summary of Seven Leadership Leverage Points for 2008

ChangesLeverage Points Key Changes in 2008One: Establish and Oversee specific system-level Aims at the Highest Governance Level

•Emphasis on the critical role of the board in quality.•Learning about the power of stories and data at the board level.

Two: Develop and Executable Strategy to Achieve the system-level Aims and Oversee the execution at the highest governance level

Learning what it takes to execute change on large scale. •Focus on one or two major aims•Rigorous steering of the execution plan using good data from the field•Resourcing strategic improvements with capable improvers and change leaders as their primary job responsibility.

Three: Channel Leadership Attention to System-Level Improvement: Personal Leadership, Leadership systems, and Transparency

•Confirmation and examples of the power of leadership attention to improvement aims. •A major new emphasis on the power of transparency to drive improvement and change.

Four: Put Patients and Families on the Improvement Team

•Original leverage point focused on establishing the most effective senior leadership team. •Revised leverage point focuses exclusively on the transformational role of patients and families on leadership and improvement teams.

Summary of Seven Leadership Leverage Points for 2008

ChangesLeverage Points Key Changes in 2008Five: Make the Chief Financial Officer a Quality Champion

•Learning about the potentially powerful role of the CFO can play in improvement once they see “reduce waste in core processes” as the primary driver of cost reductions, rather than the traditional approach of “reduce inputs to (defective) core processes”

Six: Engage Physicians •Developed an entirely new framework for engaging physicians in a shared quality agenda, with extensive examples.

Seven: Build Improvement Capability

•Continued reinforcement of the critical need to build capable improvers at every level as an important underpinning for the other six leverage points.

Improving System Level Performance:

Setting Goals and Ensuring Results

• Four Components– Setting Breakthrough Performance Goals

– Developing a portfolio of projects to support goals

– Deploying resources to projects that are appropriate for the aim

– Establish an Oversight and Learning System to Increase Chance of Producing Intended Results.

Improving System Level Performance:

Setting Goals and Ensuring Results

• Setting Breakthrough Performance Goals– Generally set through strategic and business planning for the organization.•Efficiency – Consists of:

– Assuming responsibility for total cost of care– Cost per capita– VS –

» Hospital costs» Length of Stay (LOS)» Cost per case

Setting Goals and Ensuring Results

• Set Milestones and Acknowledge Progress– Milestones allow you to monitor progress and help ensure you are on track

– Identify and address issues that cause delays

– Acknowledge and celebrate success/progress

– Thank Stakeholders for their support.

Four Sources of Leverage

• Complex Systems Theory • Observed Performance of Leaders in Health Systems

• Hunches, Intuition, and Collective Experience

• Ongoing Research and Development of Management Theories and Methods

Complex Systems Theory• Complex adaptive systems cannot be specified and managed in detail (healthcare systems)

• Highly likely that small changes in certain critical aspects of these systems might bring about surprising and unpredictable amounts of improvement or deterioration in overall system performance.

• If leaders could choose the right system attributes (“leverage points”) and make small, but important changes; very large performance change might result.

Observed Performance of Leaders in Health Systems

• IHI’s Pursuing Perfection• IMPACT• 100,000 Lives Campaign• 5 Million Lives Campaign• Where has system level changes occurred?

– Does not occur without declared aim to achieve it.

• Leverage points based largely on qualitative data and stories of leaders versus solid base research.

Hunches, Intuition and Collective Experience

• Particularly those that surface as recurrent “difficult moments” for leaders.

• Sense that the business case for quality is still fragile in many healthcare organizations and if the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) were to somehow become a champion for system level improvement quality, dramatic improvement would be much more likely.

Ongoing Research and Development of Management

Theories and Methods• IHI has continued to provide research and gained valuable knowledge such as: – Execution– Governing Boards– Transparency– Physician engagement

Achieve Strategic Goals

Manage Local Improvement

BuildCapability

ENVIRONMENT INFRASTRUCTURE

Spread and Change

Provide Leaders for Large System ChangeSpread and Change

Provide Leaders for Large System Projects

Core Elements for Process Improvement

Achieve Strategic Goals

• Strategic Goals Must:– Be aligned with organizational priorities

– Be associated with human and capital costs

• Boards, executives and clinical leaders proactively set goals for system level transformation. – Identify new opportunities for improvement

– Remove barriers– Celebrate Success

Manage Local Improvement• Plan for daily management of local

improvement projects– Support or sustain breakthrough aims to manage daily operations.

• Regularly and transparently review performance data– Frequent and open assessment of data

•Includes everyone involved•Builds joint accountability for progress.

Develop Human Capital

• Medical staff takes responsibility for clinical improvement– Physicians actively engaged in data review– Chief Medical Officer responsible for quality

• Creating a sense of ownership among medical staff

• Organization invests in human capital and continuous learning, building capacity at all levels.

• Successful organizations– Invest significant resources to develop staff– Develop middle managers– Provide training with safety officers and improvement advisors

“It is Leadership’s job to build the will for change

among busy professionals, implement systems to capture new ideas and

spread them to the right people within the

organization, and design and implement an effective

strategy”Bisognano, Schummers, McCannon

Leadership’s Role in the Execution• Successful execution of strategic

goals depends on a genuine sense of share responsibility.

• Execution remains the weak link in the framework for improvement

• Make the case for Change– Consider the reasons for the change– Describe current and desired states– Address the 5 W’s (Who, What, When Where, Why)

Leadership’s Role in the Execution

• Enlist Stake Holders– Look across the organization

•Departments/individuals interested in working on change

•Determine supporters and potential naysayers

•Invite Stakeholders to “come on board”•Make sure you have appropriate sponsorship/approval

•Put together the team who will plan, implement and define roles and responsibilities.

Leadership’s Role in Execution

• Communicate The Vision– Identify who are the best people to communicate the change

– Who do you need to communicate to?– What do you need to communicate and what action need to be take

– Communicate, Communicate, Communicate •Transparency is Key•Face-to-Face is best

Leadership’s Role in Execution

• Expect Barriers to come up– Unexpected resistance– Lack of knowledge or Ability– Process issues– Technology issues

• Develop plan to remove/address• Utilize Change/Transition Blueprint to help identify.

Leadership’s Role in Execution

• Why people resist change– Fear of the unknown

•Safety is challenged

– Loss of Confidence•Feeling of “significance” is challenged

– Lack of buy-in– Feeling overwhelmed

Leadership’s Role in Execution• Managing Resistance

– Change management right the first time• Effective change management can eliminate many causes of resistance before they occur.

– Expect it• Do not be surprised by resistance, expect it and plan for it.

– Identify root cause• Make sure you aren’t simply responding to the symptom

– Engage Support• Managers, Directors, and Executive support

– Consider the Culture• Leader support• Informal Leaders• Generational issues

Step 3: Key Stakeholders/CustomersWho may be affected by changing of the current

state? Example: Specific departments, people,

customers

Step 4: Context (External, Internal Factors Driving the Need for Change) Example: Why would changing from the current state matter?

Step 5: Approaches/ActionsWhat possible ways could this issue be resolved? Example: Education program, change in policy, PDCA team, brainstorming

Strategic Conversations

Step 1: Current StateWhat is the current situation that is driving the change? Example: What is not occurring?

Step 2: Future StateWhat would be the ideal situation after the change? Example: That particular “something” would be occurring.

Report to Process Improvement Team

Consider using PDCA when:

A process already exists, but needs to be improved and you’re not sure on how to improve it.

The process must be studied to understand how all the parts fit together.

Changing the process could be expensive and hard to reverse.

Improvement ideas don’t readily come from literature or benchmarking.

Simple problem solving has shown itself ineffective

If any of the below apply, Use the Decision Support Process

VIC/Public/Forms/Decision Support

The idea introduces a new program or service providing care for patient groups not previously served by PVHS.

The new process would provide treatment of existing patient groups through a new technology.

The process includes the purchase of an existing business not currently owned by PVHS.

The idea dramatically extends an existing service/program that increases capacity for capturing additional volume for PVHS.

The idea expands an existing program into a geographic market not previously served by PVHS.

One year time limit on PDCA team commitment

Quality Resources is available for consultation for decision support.

If the process improvement impacts patient safety, consider consulting with Quality Resources first.

* Review the statements that apply. Make a determination for using PDCA or business proposal process.Note: When the need for quick turnaround outweighs the risk of making changes without thorough upfront analysis, involvement of relevant Directors and SMG

is required.
