Book excerpt: No one has ever faced a healthcare crisis as dire as the one that confronted Florence Nightingale at the Scutari Barrack Hospital, yet despite the challenges over a 2-year period she defined the nursing profession and created a blueprint for the hospital as we know it today. Now she returns to Memorial Medical Center to help the leadership team foster a stronger culture of ownership. In this heart-warming and thought-provoking story you will learn: proven strategies to foster a culture of ownership; Why a culture of ownership requires people who are emotionally positive, self empowered, and fully engaged; How to use a construction metaphor to create a blueprint for your organization's ownership architecture; The 8 essential characteristics of a culture of ownership; How to use the pickle pledge to help people confront toxic emotional negativity and promote a more positive and productive workplace attitude; and how the 7 promises of self-empowerment can help foster a more empowering culture. -- From publisher description
