Altering Frontiers [EPUB ebook] 
Organizational Innovations in Healthcare

How can healthcare systems be transformed by reimagining their multiple silos to favor processes and practices that are more responsive to local, horizontal initiatives? Altering Frontiers analyzes numerous experiences, using a multidisciplinary approach, paying attention to certain actors, collectives and organizational arrangements.

Through this work, levers are identified that promote lasting transformation: recognizing the legitimacy of the practices of many who are often ‘invisible’; trusting those who know their intervention territory; investing in methodological support; taking advantage of tools and procedures such as instruments for strategic and managerial discussion; and developing the capacity to absorb innovative ideas and experiences that circulate within the environment.
