A Hospital, a Business, and a Step Towards Health


Successful businesses, by and large, display a balance of numerous factors including strong financial leadership, sturdy customer accommodation strategy, committed staff, and investment in the future. When we think of powerful businesses, we most often consider technology firms, department stores, investment banking ventures, home goods manufacturers, and magazines: entities that create and sell products that offer a rewarding consumer experience service. Unfortunately, this definition of business, while understandable, overlooks a large faction of companies, namely, those that provide entirely necessary goods and procedures. An elementary school, which teaches our children how to understand our world at the most basic level, still maintains its property, updates its policy, plans for its fiscal profile in years to come. Another example of this remains healthcare; while we generally turn to hospitals only in our time of need, they still require a complex leadership model.
