Strategic Planning

We help health systems, academic medical centers and universities make choices about where to compete, how to grow, and how to position themselves for the future, then translate those choices into strategic priorities, initiatives, and implementation roadmaps.

What we do

  • Enterprise strategy and strategic positioning
  • AMC/AHC strategy and future-state definition
  • Health system growth strategies
  • Academic medicine strategy
  • Institutional differentiation and competitive positioning
  • Strategic priorities, initiatives, and implementation roadmaps

Questions we help answer

  • What should our health system, academic medical center or university look like in ten years, and what has to be true to get there?
  • Where should we compete, and where should we deliberately not?
  • How do we differentiate our institution in a crowded regional market?
  • Which strategic priorities deserve investment first, and which can wait?
  • How do we turn an approved plan into initiatives with owners, timelines and measures of success?

Let's discuss the decision in front of you.

Some strategic questions are too important to answer alone.
