STRATEGY AND<br />

CHANGE<br />

INTELLIGENT INTELLIGENT STRATEGY<br />

STRATEGY<br />

With Richard Rumelt<br />

� Steve Jobs' plan for Apple in 1997:<br />

hatchet job or strategy?<br />

� Why financial performance goals are<br />

not strategy.<br />

� Creating proximate goals and "riding<br />

the wave" of change.<br />

Bad strategy is long on goals and vision<br />

and short on presenting a coherent set of<br />

actions for actually solving the<br />

fundamental problems facing an<br />

organization. Good strategy, on the other<br />

hand, flows from an honest diagnosis of<br />

your most critical challenge coupled with<br />

an action plan for specific objectives that<br />

your organization can reasonably<br />

ac<strong>com</strong>plish to over<strong>com</strong>e that challenge.<br />

Drawing on the successes of General<br />

Motors in the 1920s, NASA's Apollo<br />

program, Cisco, IKEA, and Nvidia,<br />

Professor Rumelt defines five elements of<br />

good strategies. First, use analytic tools to<br />

develop insight into the nature of your<br />

challenge. Then, define achievable<br />

proximate objectives toward your goal,<br />

recognize and ride the wave of change in<br />

your industry, build a "chain link" barrier to<br />

<strong>com</strong>petition, and finally, expect and<br />

over<strong>com</strong>e entropy and inertia from within.<br />

CHANGE<br />

With Brad Smith<br />

� Why leadership is the questions you<br />

ask, not the answers you give.<br />

� A continuous improvement strategy<br />

for a rapidly changing world.<br />

� How to inspire action by organizing<br />

for failure.<br />

When Brad Smith took over as CEO, Intuit<br />

founder Scott Cook advised him to<br />

"Question everything." Using this as his<br />

mantra, Smith set out to create innovative<br />

business structures that built on Intuit's<br />

strengths and retained market dominance<br />

in spite of an explosion in social media,<br />

unforeseen technology shifts, and radical<br />

changes in consumer expectations. In this<br />

highly informative presentation, Smith<br />

shares secrets that have led to<br />

revolutionary new products, sky-high<br />

productivity, and a ranking on Fortune's<br />

100 Best Companies to Work For.<br />

Smith describes how to articulate a vision<br />

so simple and clear that teams are aligned<br />

and motivated without the leader having to<br />

do anything but get out of the way. He<br />

details specific techniques for building a<br />

culture where innovation thrives and the<br />

next best thing could <strong>com</strong>e from anywhere<br />

in the <strong>com</strong>pany. And he explains how Intuit<br />

selects the right people, projects and<br />

metrics for prospering in the present while<br />

at the same time preparing for an<br />

unknown future.<br />

NURSING<br />

Ostomy surgery is a life-changing event. It<br />

is the job and function of the healthcare<br />

professional caring for the post-ostomy<br />

patient to provide care for the stoma.<br />

However, the healthcare professional<br />

should also understand that he/she plays<br />

a pivotal role in helping the patient with<br />

overwhelming emotions that often go<br />

along with ostomy.<br />

This course reviews the digestive system<br />

in brief and a few of the most frequently<br />

performed ostomies, the main medical<br />

conditions that may lead to an ostomy,<br />

post-operative and daily care for different<br />

ostomies. It also focuses on helping the<br />

patient prepare for discharge and life<br />

post-ostomy.<br />

The purpose of this program is to provide<br />

nurses and others an understanding of the<br />

importance of providing patients with<br />

appropriate care of stoma following<br />

ostomy procedures and addressing both<br />

physical and emotional issues involved in<br />

living with a stoma in order to assist the<br />

patient's continuing care.<br />

After watching this program viewers<br />

should be able to:<br />

� Define the terms "stoma" and<br />

"ostomy".<br />

� Describe the steps involved in caring<br />

for the stoma.<br />

� Define <strong>com</strong>mon ostomy procedures.<br />

� Describe the factors of a patient's<br />

self-care of his/her stoma.<br />

� Describe possible <strong>com</strong>plications and<br />

irrigation technique.<br />

� Develop a list of problematic foods<br />

that can produce odor, gas and other<br />

intestinal ailments that can cause the<br />

post-ostomy patient pain and<br />

embarrassment.<br />

� Describe the types of sexual<br />

dysfunction both male and female<br />

ostomy patients may experience and<br />

suggest ways these patients may help<br />

themselves over<strong>com</strong>e some of these<br />

issues.<br />
