What is the significance of looking at historical evidence when evaluating the health of a company?

 

Identify a healthcare organization which has either failed or has been, in your opinion, operating as a mediocre company for years.

Provide an overview of the organization.

Using Collins’ (2009) 5 Stages of Decline, describe in detail why the company has failed or has been operating as a mediocre company for years.  Use the stage names as the heading for each separate section. I want to see a separate discussion for each stage of the process.

After you write the 5 stage evaluation, answer the following at the end of your discussion post:

1. Can the company recover?  Why or why not?

2. What is the significance of looking at historical evidence when evaluating the health of a company?

3. Would an historical review of the company using Collins’ (2009) 5 Stages of Decline make a difference in the success of the organization?  Why or why not?
