The Role of the CEO 7 M's

These are challenging times where it seems there is a dearth of leadership in every industry, especially healthcare, and a high performing organization is the exception reserved only for those really cool high tech companies.   Don’t worry. Becoming a high performing organization is not reserved just for high tech; it can happen in any industry even healthcare. But it is a pipe dream if the person at the top does not know what their role is.  So in many respects it starts there, with the CEO.  The 7 M’s is a great way for the leader at the top to think about their role and, more importantly, is a great list to spend their career mastering.

I have been a CEO for about 20 years now and if I am honest, much of that time, I struggled to know whether I was playing my role correctly.  I would ask myself, “What exactly should I be doing? Where should I be focusing my time?”  Well, at least I was asking the question; because, I see many CEO’s that either just go with their habits or perhaps go with what made them successful before.  Both of those are risky propositions.  This ebook is what I wished I would have read 20 years ago; something that could have helped me feel confident I was focusing on the right things.  A CEO friend of mine who read this eBook recently said, “The 7 M’s is gold because it is a mooring to attach to.  Thank you a million times over.”
