Assignment Instructions
Create an executive presentation in the form of 8–10 PowerPoint slides and create an audio or video recording (5 minutes or less in length) of yourself making the presentation to your audience. The presentation must describe an action plan to address the identified issues and a communication strategy to share the action plan with the organization’s stakeholders.
In the PowerPoint presentation:
Briefly share the issues you identified in your Week 4 assignment.
Analyze how you would address the issues relevant to the factor you chose (your action plan).
In your explanation include at least 3 actions.
Analyze the human resource and financial perspectives of your action plan.
For example, if you chose the factor Better Care and Greater Value (affordability and access, quality and safety, value-based delivery and payment models), and determined that under accessibility and affordability there were customers who did not have a way to communicate or access follow-up care, an issue is identified. Now that you know this issue, perhaps your action plan to address the issue is partnering with Verizon or AT&T to provide cell phones to those customers who are not able to afford the means of communicating or participating in their plan of care. Keep in mind that means addressing the financial perspective and how this impacts operations.
Describe your communication strategy that addresses the identified issues related to the factor chosen in your initial assignment and the resulting action plan.
Describe the effective leadership soft skills that are essential for this delivery, such as communication, motivating others, teamwork, problem-solving, adaptability, delegation, active listening, et cetera.
Describe a communication strategy that is appealing to your stakeholders.
Describe how you will get your stakeholders motivated to climb on board with your action plan.
