Chapter 5: The interior finish of workplace attitude

Abstract

This item record pertains to an excerpt from Building a Culture of Ownership in Healthcare, 3rd Edition, which is provided free of charge by the publisher.

About this book:

In the aftermath of the pandemic, preexisting challenges in healthcare organizations have intensified. Stress, burnout, staffing shortages, and even the erosion of trust in organizational leadership are pressing issues that need solutions.

Using construction as their metaphor, authors Joe Tye and Bob Dent make a compelling case that a healthcare organization's Invisible Architecture—a foundation of core values, a superstructure of organizational culture, and the interior finish of workplace attitude—is no less important than its visible architecture.

This third edition of the multi-AJN award-winning Building a Culture of Ownership in Healthcare takes readers on a journey from accountability to ownership—providing a proven model, strategies, and practical solutions to help improve organizational culture in the healthcare setting.

Readers will learn how investing in their organization and their people can enable a significant, successful change in productivity; employee engagement; nurse satisfaction, recruitment, and retention; quality of care; patient satisfaction; and positive financial outcomes.
