The paradox prescription: leading the medical group of the future
1Center for Health Care Strategy, College of Business Administration, Texas Tech University, Lubbock, USA.
Abstract:
Leaders of health care organizations must constantly deal with paradox in and around their organizations. The paradox profile is a modeling technique for examining how organizations prioritize their dealings with the eight competing issues from which the four paradoxes are derived. This article demonstrates the leadership challenges that exist when a paradox is present and how these tensions differ when the integrative status of the medical group--as either part of an integrated system or not--is considered.
