Explain how organizational culture can affect ethical health care management practices.

 
Write a 4-6 page strategic change management plan that describes how organizational culture affects health care management practices and the types of ethical challenges that can come with organizational change. Explain the role of personal integrity in managing change. Describe strategies that can be used to prevent or resolve ethical challenges related to organizational change.
Introduction
It can be said that one of the most profound organizational influence challenges for health care managers is that of balancing stewardship and fiscal responsibility. Conflicts of interest, billing practices, fraud, and abuse are just some examples of ethical issues related to the organizational influence of finance. The concept of justice plays a central role in ethical finance decision-making and management. As leaders attempt to balance market justice and patient justice-related priorities, they must still consider and protect the justice of their staff and community in the process.
It is also important for you to understand the value of using formal ethical decision-making processes for managing ethical issues within the health care organization, and how these processes differ from business processes in other industries. By developing an ethically focused mindset, adopting a personal moral stance, and choosing a personal ethical philosophy, you are establishing a strong foundation on which to build formal decision-making processes and steps. Common errors, or decision traps, often occur in decision-making processes and impede success. You must be able to identify and reflect on various decision traps in order to support the development of your own ethical decision-making skills and awareness.
Of course, it is equally important to have a strong, ethically oriented organizational culture to support leader success in meeting these challenges with integrity. The health care manager plays an integral role in implementing policies and procedures, as well as modeling an ethical mindset and behavior.
Preparation
For this assessment, imagine that you are a department manager in a mid-size health care organization that is in the process of undergoing a major change (perhaps a merger, buy-out, or restructuring). Your director has called a meeting of all department managers to develop a strategy for taking the organization successfully through the change. A major component of managing this change is safeguarding the organizational culture, which is currently very positive and based on ethical principles and practices. In addition, the organization has quality ratings in both patient safety and organizational integrity.
At the end of the meeting, the director asks each manager to draft a strategic change management plan to help them guide their department through the change. To help you get started, the director has provided a statement to be used in each plan. Each plan must consider the role of ethics and ethical management in organizational culture. You must bring your plan to the next strategy meeting in two weeks.
Review the resources provided to see how they may help you in completing this assessment. Conduct your own search in the Capella library and on the Internet to find authoritative resources on the topic of organizational culture and ethics. You will need at least three resources to support your work.
Organize your strategic change management plan logically and use headings and sub-headings as appropriate. Follow APA guidelines for citations and references. Please be sure you include a title page and references page.
Instructions
Please read carefully.
Please use the following statement as your thesis or opening statement for this assessment:
Creating and maintaining a positive organizational culture requires exceptional awareness, communication, and management skills on the part of leaders in any organization in any industry. When a shared identity is created and acceptance of the overall goals and mission of an organization is strong, ethical issues can more easily be prevented and resolved. This is vitally important in the health care industry as every aspect of management faces crucial ethical elements.
Then, in the rest of your assessment, complete the following:

Explain how organizational culture can affect ethical health care management practices. Be sure you consider this from the perspective of both a negative organizational culture as well as a positive one. (Hint: think about other aspects that may be affected by organizational culture.)
Describe possible ethical issues related to organizational change that could affect the existing organizational culture, patient safety, and organizational integrity.
Explain the role of personal moral integrity in effectively leading change and maintaining a positive organizational culture.
Describe evidence-based strategies health care leaders can use to prevent or resolve ethical challenges related to changes in organizational culture.

With recent advances in technology, scientists are able to manipulate and alter genes in different organisms. This is obviously a very controversial and somewhat ethical issue. However, the advances continue, many of which go unseen or unnoticed by the public. Do you know how many of the foods that you eat that have been genetically altered? Do you know where or how animals have been genetically altered to benefit mankind?

With recent advances in technology, scientists are able to manipulate and alter genes in different organisms. This is obviously a very controversial and somewhat ethical issue. However, the advances continue, many of which go unseen or unnoticed by the public. Do you know how many of the foods that you eat that have been genetically altered? Do you know where or how animals have been genetically altered to benefit mankind? We will explore three separate issues in this discussion that deal with organisms which have been genetically altered and/or modified.You should then make at least two additional posts to other students on either topic.Select ONE of the following discussion topics to write on for your Initial post to the Week 4 Discussion.

What challenges are women/birthing persons in the US having during the postpartum period? What contributes to these challenges?  

Read the two articles  (Goddess Myth and What Postpartum Care Looks Like Around the World, and Why the U.S. Is Missing the Mark)
Answer the following questions:
1. What challenges are women/birthing persons in the US having during the postpartum period? What contributes to these challenges?  
2. Was there any information in the articles that surprised you? 
3. Do you know anyone who had a difficult time during their postpartum period with coping, mood, self-care, baby care or feeding? What kind of support did they get if any? Was it appropriate, or lacking? 
4. What is the role of nurses in preparing Post-partum patients prior to birth and in the first 6 weeks post-birth and beyond? 

How might diversity within the organization ultimately lead to better problem solving and greater creativity? How important is creativity in regard to “change”?

Week 10 Discussion
Quote of the week:  What lies before us and what lies behind us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us. (Oliver Wendell Homes)
Discussion: How might diversity within the organization ultimately lead to better problem solving and greater creativity? How important is creativity in regard to “change”? Is it important is it to get “buy in” from others….including their ideals, thoughts, and opinions. What are your thoughts? You may share a personal experience.
You may provide examples to illustrate your points.
Note: Make sure to cite the source or reference using the most current APA or CMS format.

What theory of leadership most closely aligns with our current practice within our organization, and do you think it is most appropriate, or would another serve us better?

For this Discussion, imagine the following scenario:
You are part of a team at the organization where you are currently employed (or at an organization with which you are familiar). This team is made up of members of the different departments at the organization. The executive director has tasked each member of the team to independently assess the following two questions:

What theory of leadership most closely aligns with our current practice within our organization, and do you think it is most appropriate, or would another serve us better?
What leadership theory would you recommend that might be more effective, and why? (Note: If you think the current leadership theory is a good fit and is effective, explain why you think it is working and should remain in place.)

You cannot believe your luck. The very week that you are given this task happens to be the very same week that leadership theory and frameworks are being discussed in the first class of your master’s program at Walden.
To prepare for this Discussion:

Review the leadership theories and frameworks presented in this week’s Learning Resources.
Then, think about your current organization (or one with which you are familiar) in light of the leadership theories/frameworks you have examined in this course so far. In particular, consider the leadership of that organization and whether it seems to align with a particular leadership framework/theory. If it does not (or if you think the organization could use a change in approach), consider which theory/framework might be the best fit for that organization. 

 
BY DAY 3
Post an evaluation of the leadership approach of your selected organization, to include the following:

Assess the leadership theory/framework that you believe aligns with the organization in question. Or, if your organization does not seem to follow a particular approach (or you feel that changes are needed), assess what would be the most appropriate theory/framework for your organization based on what you now understand about leadership theory. 

As part of your assessment, paraphrase the central idea of the leadership theory/framework you have selected.

Provide a rationale to support your selection of the leadership theory/framework for the organization, including relevant, appropriate examples and details (without identifying the organization or any individuals), as well as specific lessons that can be learned from the theory based on your observations and experiences. 

Refer to the Week 2 Discussion Rubric for specific grading elements and criteria. Your Instructor will use this grading rubric to assess your work.
Read some of your colleagues’ postings.
