"""Being in healthcare for over 15 years, it is quite refreshing reading about the heart of what we do. Oehlert and Sitzman have taken a strategic approach in defining many useful quality tools whilst using theory methodologies in a digestible way. This quick read is a must in your toolbox that can be referenced when thinking of how you can have synchronized harmony and collaboration amongst all disciplines. My favorite is the core analogy that gives your purpose... I will not give it all away, but absolutely loved the reference. As a former data analyst, I appreciate the value placed on utilizing data as a disrupter in a good way. Sit back, take it all in and then share the knowledge just as Oehlert and Sitzman did."" Reakweeda Zazay, MHA, NREMT, Manager Transplant Quality, The George Washington University Hospital ""In System Innovation: A Holistic Approach to Disrupting with Love and Human Caring, Dr. Oehlert and Ms. Sitzman challenge the conventional norms of healthcare systems by introducing groundbreaking innovations rooted in love and human caring. Their writing is not only clear and educational, but practical and inspiring, making it a valuable read for anyone in the healthcare field. One of the many strengths of the book is the seamless blend of theory and real-world application. The authors skillfully introduce concepts of healthcare practices and policies, and then follow up with relevant examples that are easily accessible to the reader. This book promotes a collaborative and growth-oriented approach that empowers healthcare clinicians to implement change in their own practice. The book successfully bridges the gap between leadership ideology and real-world application. It goes beyond theoretical concepts, providing concrete strategies to implement change and cultivate a more compassionate, human-centered approach. This book is a compelling read for those seeking to challenge the status quo and foster a culture of love and caring in healthcare.""
