Join lead author John Koster, MD as he describes how healthcare leaders can develop cultures of enquiry to guide their organizations through dramatic market changes.
Unique individuals, the n = 1, are the driving force in the transformation of healthcare. Digitization has democratized information, which feeds the desire of people to behave and be treated as unique individuals. Scientific innovation is uncovering the importance of our unique biological individuality.
The financial risk of healthcare is increasingly transferred to individuals and providers, fueling changes in financial incentives. With greater access to information, individuals are more informed about their options and want to make the best choices. This profound change in individuals’ expectations and behavior is accelerating healthcare transformation.
n = 1 is a collaboration of John Koster MD, a physician health system CEO, Dr. Gary Bisbee, a venture capital entrepreneur and Ram Charan, a leading global business advisor. Their diverse perspectives provide insights into the forces transforming US Healthcare that leaders in all segments of the industry can use to navigate the uncertainties ahead.
REGISTER NOW to join the discussion.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
Healthcare industry CEOs, Executives, Physician Leaders, Board members and business leaders who are grappling with the challenges and opportunities created by the disruption of American healthcare.

If you’ve been one of our clients for very long, we’ve probably talked about the concept of friction. Friction is the byproduct of unexpected events or unanticipated consequences that tends to act like sand in the crank case of your best laid plans. If ever there was a clear example of friction, the Covid-19 pandemic is it. Effective leaders expect to encounter friction even though they can rarely predict a specific source. The best approach to weathering friction from any source is to expect it, recognize when it’s happening and cultivate resilience within yourself, your teams, and your organization. Now that we are in the thick of the Covid-19 pandemic with […]

I was recently discussing the stark division in our country with some colleagues, and the conversation turned to how bias shapes pretty much everything around us, including our own views.
