Week 4 Discussion Question 7/8

Mayo Clinic has been the staple healthcare organization whose focus are their vast network of patients. The HRM strategic plan plays a big role in why Mayo Clinic is able to provide quality care to patients and hire/recruit quality healthcare providers. According to the assigned article, HR at Mayo Clinic has spent years perfecting their priorities and strategies. Since Mayo Clinic has such a huge network of healthcare providers, one thing that stood out to me was how Mayo has instilled the idea of working together to prevent competition. Working together does prevent competition, but also gives HR the tools necessary to eliminate or fix any relative issue. In present day, Teamwork has become the norm at Mayo Clinic. With a teamwork dynamic set in place, HR now has the ability to hire the right employee who exhibits those same values. HR looks for individuals who are team players and can advance in the company while still demonstrating empathy for others. Empathy is an important quality any prospective employee must have, especially since company advancement is encouraged at Mayo.
Currently, the pandemic has caused a shortage of healthcare providers at most healthcare organizations. A lot of hospitals have taken a huge hit with the increase in patients and decrease in health care workers. Shortages have the ability of causing healthcare organizations to be lenient on the qualities needed for a potential employee to work at a company. Mayo will probably not face any issues with finding quality employees during this time because of the methods they have set in place with HR. It is important for all healthcare organizations to have a similar model set in place to prevent the hiring of someone that is not up to standard.

Mayo Clinic is a well-known healthcare organization whose primary focus is on their enormous network of patients. Mayo Clinic’s ability to offer great care to patients and hire/recruit qualified healthcare providers is largely due to the HRM strategic plan. According to the assigned article, Mayo Clinic’s human resources department has spent years honing their priorities and tactics. Because Mayo Clinic has such a large network of healthcare professionals, one thing that stuck out to me was how Mayo has ingrained the idea of cooperating to avoid rivalry. Working together not only eliminates competition, but it also provides HR with new opportunities.
