• Wonder what it means in the context of healthcare?

Then join us on Wednesday, September 19, 2012 for a discussion of LEAN as applied to a Family & Medical Leave Act program. Mark Cerkvenik will be our speaker.

The Healthcare Community of Practice is a group of people interested in or practicing organization development in healthcare settings. Our primary purpose is to build our own body of knowledge about how to improve healthcare outcomes and systems. Anyone interested in discussing change efforts in the healthcare field, as planners of or presenters for our meetings, is welcome.
