  "Everyone in a hospital leadership role should read this book as it offers a wealth of practical advice for organizations intent on improving their clinical care delivery." 
  -Amy C. Edmondson, professor, Harvard Business School, and author of The Fearless Organization 
   
   
  Healthcare continues to be our fastest-growing sector-three times more than the rest of the economy. Yet it costs almost twice as much in the United States as it does in other countries, and its delivery systems are widely acknowledged to be fragmented, uneven in quality, and difficult to negotiate for the patients they aim to serve. Systemic changes are needed to create structures and processes that address these intrinsic flaws. 
  Practical and inspiring, this book draws on theories and practices that promote organizational change and outlines processes for establishing labor-management partnerships that utilize the knowledge and experience of administrators and staff at all levels. Through details of past and current practices of frontline participation, readers will discover proven methods for improving healthcare in the United States by listening to and implementing the ideas of frontline staff and patients.

  Ground War - Courts Commissions...

  In Ground War, Nicholas Goedert tackles the controversies, litigation, and effects surrounding partisan gerrymandering of Congress. He contends that the appropriate actors to address the fairness of a map are nonpartisan commissions within each state, not the US courts. Goedert illustrates how existing measures and legal standards are too narrow—while they are well-adapted to evaluating maps in swing states in close elections, they fail to properly address states or national electoral environments that favor one party. In turn, Goedert demonstrates that the bias and responsiveness of partisan maps is highly sensitive to both the make-up of a state's electorate and the ephemeral election conditions under which individual elections take place. But this does not mean that partisan gerrymandering must be excused as a dilemma without a reasonable remedy. Using multiple empirical approaches and a novel metric to measure the partisan fairness of maps, Ground War shows that nonpartisan commissions, adopted state-by-state, represent the best alternative to legislative districting. 
   
   
   
  A rigorous account that explains how our system works and provides practical solutions for improving it, Ground War is an essential work for all scholars of US elections.

  Hear Us Now: Racial Equity in the Workplace is a unique blend of entrepreneurship and niche-focused advice on how to successfully create more racially just workplaces. This topic has never been more timely, as individuals and organizations struggle with a growing national effort to eliminate racial equity practices in a range of institutions. This book provides both much needed hope and important practical advice. 
  Hear Us Now focuses on Dr. Keecha Harris’ personal and professional experience as a 25-year entrepreneur, sharing experiences and expertise to help women of color succeed while also expounding on her mission-driven passions and interests within the intersectionality of philanthropy, diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), and racial justice. Dr. Harris provides her provocative perspective and interviews leaders, partners, and organizers who, like herself, are taking much-needed action as transformational, anti-racist change agents. Her co-author, Dr. Ali Webb, brings a lifetime of experience leading teams in government and the nonprofit sector, with stints at the United States Department of Agriculture and the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. 
  The book, drawn from Harris’ hour-long R.A.C. E. podcast interviews, focuses on change in the personal, behavior, and organizational spheres with the goal of racial equity transformation of the workplace. For her groundbreaking podcast, Dr. Harris interviewed leaders across sectors who honestly shared their journeys of becoming transformational change agents, through leading change efforts within their organizations and shifting from allyship into accomplices when supporting people of color. 
  This book will help you discover what it takes to be courageous for change and to become an anti-racist leader in your organization, no matter what position you hold. Learn what you have in common with these leaders and what you can take away for your own journey.
