A Brief History of Healthcare Management: In many ways, healthcare management is a "hidden" career. When
we think of a hospital or a clinic, we tend to think of physicians, nurses,
and other caregivers. The myriad of people who work in the organizations
that support health services delivery organizations, like insurance
and managed care companies and government policy-making and regulatory
agencies, are even more invisible and are not who we think of
when we hear the phrase "health services." However, they play very important
roles in making health services available and accessible.

Haiman�s Healthcare Management: In 1937, Luther Gulick, borrowing from the work of Henri Fayol, created a list of seven key
administrative functions of every organization that included: Planning, Organizing, Staffing, Directing,
Coordinating, Reporting, and Budgeting. This model, that he termed POSDCORB, became the standard
for administrative organization and bureaucracy. The classic POSDCORB framework is essentially
replicated in the 7th edition of Haiman's Healthcare Management, written by Rose Dunn. This traditional
treatment of management is reflected in the first seven of the eight parts of the book that include: stepping
into management, connective processes, planning, organizing, human resource management, influencing,
and controlling. The final part deals with labor relations. This book is clearly intended for the novice
who has no experience with either the practice or study of management.

Improving Higher Educationtion throughDisruption: n both higher education and the world of business, constant
striving for improvement and excellence in one's products and
services�be they computers, cameras, curricula, teaching, or
