16 Driving Accountability - Cascading from the Strategic Plan Vision without execution is hallucination. -Thomas Edison 1. Strategic Plan 2. Pillar Plans Specific plans related to each pillar (service, quality, growth, finance, community, etc.) providing detail and ownership. 3. Organizational Goals Well articulated, specific and objective outcomes for each pillar plan. 4. Cascaded Goals 4-6 specific goals cascaded to each leader, weighted to show priority areas and a range of performance that may be achieved (e.g. 1-5 rating, where 3 is meeting goal). 5. Executing the Plans and Feedback Loop: 90 Day Action Plans: identify the actions to be taken in order to accomplish goals. Monthly Meeting Model: structured leader-to-leader meetings that allow for focus, prioritization and review of progress. Executive and Board Reports: monthly review of organizational progress to date in a balanced scorecard format. 16

25 Columbia Basin Health Association OTHELLO, WA 300+ EMPLOYEES 170,000+ ANNUAL PATIENT ENCOUNTERS The Results The Challenge Inconsistencies in staffing processes were contributing to high turnover across the organization. Recognizing that these areas were limiting the organization s ability to expand their reach across a community in need of access to high quality care, leaders sought to develop their team and provide them with the tools needed to deliver worldclass patient care. How We Achieved Results Strengthened alignment and accountability through goal-setting and utilization of an objective evaluation system Standardized employee selection processes through implementation of peer interviewing and behavioral-based questions Created processes to assist leaders in developing skills and leadership competencies Aligned behaviors using highmiddlelow performance conversations Leveraged technology such as MyRounding and Validation Matrix to drive consistency of key behaviors Decreased Turnover from 24% to 14% in three years Improved Employee Satisfaction from 34.6% to 80% in one year Increased Net Operating Margin from 3.6% to 7.5% in one year 25
