 Leading Change
“Leadership produces change. That is the
primary function”.
~ John P. Kotter ~
“They don’t make plans; they don’t solve
problems; they don’t even organize
people. What leaders really do is prepare
organizations for change and help them
cope as they struggle through it”.
~ John P. Kotter ~
(Kotter, 2001) Trinity Western

 Servant Leadership in Healthcare

We are left with the questions of what healthcare actually entails, and
what the government can do to promote its citizens' health. In claiming
that health is a basic human right, how can one reconcile the concurrent
trend of seeing health and healthcare as commodities or economic
goods? In what areas do public and private interests converge or
conflict?
