We are in the midst of a great revolution, summarized in the "Delta Table of Revolutions". Part one of this table looks at macro trends--trends affecting our economy and society. Part two examines the revolution taking place within health care. Part three looks at the revolution taking place within laboratory medicine. To survive and thrive in the 21st century, Me Inc. must adopt the best practices of any highly successful company. Me Inc. must develop its core competencies--transferable skills that you can take with you from one organization to another. There are 10 core competencies of Me Inc. These are over and above the essential technical, scientific, and/or medical knowledge and skills that you have. The core competencies you require minus the core competencies you possess equal your skills gap. The key to success for Me Inc. is to close the skills gap. This must be undertaken in a carefully planned way. You must form a clear, concise, and, above all, written plan with specific, realistic, and measurable goals. | lld:pubmed |
