Workspace:
Program:	Large-scale system changes require large-scale culture changes. Both require aligning the scope, vision, and attainment of goals. Project Managers can find themselves adrift with competing agendas, misunderstanding, lack of upper-management support, and a project with no clear direction if the politics of project alignment are not addressed. <br><br> Trinity Information Services is implementing standard clinical and financial systems for 17 health care institutions across the country. This project, known as Project Genesis, will allow any patient to be treated at a Trinity hospital and have their data available at all Trinity Hospitals. This is more than a new system, but a new way of looking at how data is available in hospitals and how it can help change patient care processes. A key component of the risk management plan is ensuring the project milestones and goals stay aligned with the corporate strategies and goals. This presentation will examine the keys to project alignment and corporate alignment, how to identify the political "deep waters," and what to do if you find yourself in them. <br><br> Plan on an interesting discussion of the hospital of the future, and some of the IS challenges in getting there. <br><br> Carla Robelli, Director, Project Management Office, will be our speaker. Ms. Robelli is currently responsible for directing the activities of the Project Management Office for Trinity Information Services (TIS). She joined Mercy Health Services in 2002. She oversees Trinity's portfolio of application projects ranging from $20,000 to $200,000,000. Previously, Ms. Robelli spent 20 years in increasingly responsible roles with an academic medical center, large healthcare systems and the nation's largest healthcare accreditation organization.
