Post the questions and responses from the interview you conducted with a health care organization senior executive. Comment on the interviews of at least two of your classmates.

The resources needed to support operations and implement strategic initiatives can far surpass those available. What is the role of the board in establishing organizational priorities? How do you know which winning ideas are worth pursuing now? How can an organization tackle ambitious plans while ensuring that operations stay on track?

For this assignment, you are required to diagram the service process and the business operating process described by your interviewee using Microsoft Word.

An example of a service process diagram can be found within the resource at

and also by searching the Internet for similar diagrams.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
