WASHINGTON, DC — September 8 , 2023 — The American Association for Physician Leadership has published Next-Level Healthcare Employees: Improving the Performance of a Good Team, a book by Laura Hills, D.A.
Although healthcare leaders spend a lot of time dealing with the day-to-day operations of their organizations, to be most effective, they must also devote the time and know-how necessary to inspire, encourage, and teach their good employees to become excellent employees.
In the book, Hills describes the benefits of a continuously improving healthcare team where all employees are on an upward trajectory.
She teaches readers to create a next-level culture within their organizations. Most importantly, this book presents readers with 17 practical, clear, how-to-do-it strategies that they can use right away and with little-to-no cost to engage their good employees and to help them to level up their performance from good to stellar. It also includes a dynamite bonus strategy that will become an invaluable staff training tool for healthcare employees at any level of performance and experience.
“I wrote Next-Level Healthcare Employees: Improving the Performance of a Good Team because settling for good employees is simply not setting the bar high enough in today’s competitive healthcare marketplace,” Hills said.
Hills holds a Doctor of Arts in higher education with a focus on adult learning and leadership. Her passion is to teach professionals how to lead and develop others, build better relationships, and communicate more effectively. She is a columnist for AAPL's Healthcare Administration Leadership & Management Journal and the Journal of Medical Practice Management since 1998.
