Introduction:
There are basic management processes that all hospital managers should know to come out with a structured (systematic and rational) problem-solving and decision-making in their areas of responsibilities.
The basic management processes consist of the following:
1. Planning (Plan)
2. Implementing (Do)
3. Evaluating and continual improvement (Check , Act)
Terminal learning objective:
At the end of the module (through coaching and independent study), the participants must be able to demonstrate skills in the three to four basic management processes:
1. Planning (Plan)
2. Implementing (Do)
3. Evaluating and continual improvement (Check , Act)
Enabling learning objectives:
1. Read and know the basic management processes (plan, implement, and evaluate) or (plan, do, check, act).
2. Apply the management processes in areas of responsibilities (events / projects).
3. Prepare and present a 6-minute case presentation showing the application of the basic management processes (off-shoot of No. 2 enabling learning objective) – [use format below].
Teaching-learning methods:
Coaching by facilitator – initially through hand-outs (see below) and subsequently, interactions on October 29, 2012
Independent study of participants on the hand-outs to be given by the facilitator (ROJoson)
Preparation of a 6-minute case presentation with clear and clean digital slides (See format below) ). [Assumption: presentation to the Hospital Director.]
*Note: all the three activities should be done and completed before October 29, 2012. On October 29, 2012, the participants will present using their prepared digital slides.
Hand-outs:
1. Any book or writings on basic management processes (plan, implement, and evaluate) or (plan, do, check, act). [Look at the Internet.]
2. Format of presentation (see below)
3. Art of Creating Digital Slides for Presentation
Format of Case Presentation using Digital Slides (give the necessary greetings, introduction and closing of a presentation) – either a project or a problem (choose one). [Assume that you are presenting to the Hospital Director.]
