Collapse All

Introduction

For leaders in healthcare, strategic analysis is a crucial tool for staying aware of both internal conditions and external environments. Without a strong understanding of both, leaders can make decisions that work in theory but not very effectively in the real world. In this assessment, you will create a succinct and thorough analysis of the internal and external environment for a medical center. You will be presented with a simulation in which a CFO of a medical center is working on strategic planning and needs more information about the current state of this facility as well as external market conditions that affect its competitiveness. This report should help stakeholders understand the importance of understanding the environment in which the organization operates. Additionally, it should clearly lay out an analysis of the internal and external environments and apply one or more strategic frameworks to analyze the environment and raise operational considerations.

Scenario

This assessment is based around the following media simulation. Be sure you have completed this activity before completing this assessment.

The goal of this assessment is to create a succinct and thorough analysis of the internal and external environment for St. Anthony Medical Center. This report should help stakeholders understand the importance of understanding the environment in which the organization operates. Additionally, it should clearly lay out an analysis of the internal and external environments and apply one or more strategic frameworks to analyze the environment and raise operational considerations.

Part 1: Understanding the Environment

For this part of your assessment, the focus should be on providing a brief analysis of the ways in which competition within the healthcare industry affects strategic planning and should be incorporated into strategic planning. As a part of your analysis, you should consider the types of evidence and analysis that would be compelling to the stakeholders at St. Anthony Medical Center to ensure that they are onboard and understand the importance at considering the competition in the environment when undertaking strategic planning. This relates to both internal and external factors.

As you create this part of your assessment, it may be helpful to think about these following areas and aspects of an organization that compete for time, attention, and resources:

· External competition.

· Staffing.

· Stakeholders.

· Organizational capacity.

Relevant Scoring Guide Criterion

· Analyze the impact and importance of understanding competition within the health industry as it applies to strategic planning.

Part 2: Organizational Analysis

In Part 2, you will present an environmental analysis for the organization. Additionally, you will discuss one or more strategic frameworks (for example, a SWOT analysis) and apply it to the scenario presented in the media simulation. Finally, you will create a compelling argument as to the need for utilizing a strategic framework and the potential implications for the organization’s future if nothing is employed.

It may be useful to apply Porter’s five forces model when conducting and communicating your analysis.
