Inside Looking Up offers insight into how a commitment to innovation — through buy-in, collaboration, and dedicated resources — can help managers of risk build better playing fields that benefit everyone involved. Among other themes, it explores the following topics:

  • How traditional practices can situate a new paradigm in healthcare
  • Why innovation is a process that requires structure and how that structure can affect new ecosystems
  • How effective collaboration can help a vision take hold
  • The importance of cross-industry tool integration in design thinking and decision analysis
  • How to use personal and professional motivation to drive a culture of safety
  • How to embrace and sustain lasting change

Presenting expert insight from lawyers, clinicians, finance strategists, safety engineers, and patient communication specialists, the TRA Stanford team shares its learning about how to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of healthcare delivery systems.

“Using the power of metaphor, Inside Looking Up reveals how innovation spurred the evolution of The Risk Authority Stanford as a way to demonstrate how every risk manager can see the situations and tools in their own environments as opportunities to stimulate systemic change. In reality, the book has something for everyone in healthcare. I couldn’t put it down!”—Geri Amori, PhD, Vice President of Academic Affairs, Coverys.

Inside Looking Up is available for purchase in hardback, softback and Kindle at Amazon.
