Data Sanity: A Quantum Leap to Unprecedented Results
Balestracci, Davis Jr.

Far too much emphasis has been placed on “tools, tools and more tools” (especially statistical techniques), resulting in rampant waste caused by poor everyday organizational use of data. It is Balestracci’s goal in Data Sanity: A Quantum Leap to Unprecedented Results to teach a new way of thinking via a common organizational language based in process and understanding variation to motivate more productive daily conversations for everyone.

Many high-level executives have no idea of the vast potential that exists to allow their organizations to take a quantum leap to unprecedented results through a common language of data sanity — new, more productive conversations in reaction to everyday use of data and the resulting meetings and actions. Topics covered in this book include:

  • Quality in Medical Group Practice—and for Everyone: The Importance of Process
  • Statistical Thinking as a Conduit to Transformation
  • Quality Improvement in a Context of Balanced Scorecards
  • A Leadership Belief System: Basic Skills for Transforming Culture
  • An Executive Team Handbook: Creating the Culture to Deliver Desired New Results

    Leaders in the business of medicine have begun to get over the mental barrier of, “We’re in medicine…we’re different.” As this book makes clear, everything is a process, and one’s thinking makes a quantum leap coming to the realization that medicine is no different from any other industry.
