43 OTHER PEAK PERFORMING ORGANIZATIONS Consciously using Maslow

44 What can hospitals (and the health care industry) learn from the hospitality business?

45 LESSON 1: THE PATIENT IS YOUR GUEST They want to be treated well, not just be cured. It s all about the experience. The higher you move up the customer pyramid, the more you move from a commodity to a premium-priced product. Motel 6 is at the bottom of the customer pyramid. Four Seasons is at the top. Where are you?

46 LESSON 2: IT S THE WHOLE PICTURE THAT THE PATIENT EXPERIENCES Just like the bartender or bellman can make or break the hotel experience, every touch point in the hospital matters not just the nurse and the doctor but also the parking attendant, the custodian, the food carriers, and the phlebotomist. The patient sees the entire event and interaction as one, so everyone needs to be moving up that continuum from job to calling. Many hospitals get the bottom and top of the employee pyramid right (money and meaning) but they forget about the relationship issues on the middle level (recognition).

47 LESSON 3: BECOME OBSESSIVE ABOUT YOUR CULTURE Culture is the glue that keeps your team together and it s the magnet that attracts talented people to work for you. Make a list of the 10 elements of your culture that truly differentiate you from other health care providers.

48 LESSON 4: BE READY TO REMAKE YOUR BUSINESS MODEL Hotel companies had to remake their distribution strategies when the disruptive innovation of third party travel websites (like Expedia) emerged as the Wal-Mart of Travel. Is Wal-Mart (or some other company or the government) about to disruptively innovate your approach to distributing or delivering your product? How can you create an Yvette the Hotel Matchmaker mass customized experience that will move you above the coming commoditization of health care?

49 Creating Peak Experiences Creates Peak Performance. Conventional wisdom is wrong: (1) money isn t the primary motivator for employees; (2) customers don t stay loyal when purely satisfied ; and (3) many investors have needs beyond ROI. Loyalty is created at the peak of each pyramid.
