Book Synopsis
From Clinic to Corner Office - Organization and Management on the Exam Table
By: Mitchell Rabkin
At age 35, and with little experience as a manager, Mitch Rabkin became CEO of Boston's Beth Israel Hospital and began an intense process of learning. Over thirty years, he and his team worked to transform Harvard-affiliated BI (now, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center) into a world-class teaching hospital, research institution and regional healthcare network. Enriched by on-the-job study and reflection on organizations and their management, Dr. Rabkin offers practical examples valuable to all managers and those who aspire to that role.
