Values and Differentiation

Transformational vs. Marginal Change

Above all, our work is structured to achieve significant, transformational and sustainable change and not improvements at the margin.

Managers vs. Consultants

We provide management services and executive leadership, and are prepared to implement our recommendations as well as serve as interim or longer-term managers for our clients—at the system, hospital, or strategic initiative levels.

Senior, Experienced Executives with Judgment

We staff our engagements predominantly with senior executives with significant line and executive experience, rather than the junior staff that many firms use to pyramid their profits.

Physician and Nurse Executives

Believing that the future of healthcare is increasingly dependent on clinical performance and utilization, our team also includes physician and nurse executives with strong medical, operational and resource management experience.

Integrity and Straight Talk

We never compromise our recommendations and always work in the best interest of the organization, and never in the best interest of any one individual or group associated with the organization.

Expertise in Large, Complex Organizations

We provide services to healthcare organizations of all sizes, but have particular expertise in working with larger more complex organizations, such as national and regional healthcare systems, medical schools and academic medical centers, and religious- and public-sponsored organizations.
