For the past several months I’ve shared a detailed look at “Game Changers”. I’ve written about several national and global trends that are and will be impacting health related practices including physical therapy and personal training. I’ve shared what I see in my “crystal ball” as to what those trends suggest for us; and I’ve written about what actions leading practices are taking in response and preparation. The key messages have been:
- The health environment is changing rapidly – more need, competition, and risk with less reimbursement and flexibility.

We will shift our focus in the upcoming posts from responding to changes in the external environment to managing change in the internal environment that we shape. While we cannot control what happens to us, we can control how we chose to respond to what happens to us.
Our potential choices and control are largely influenced by how we approach the task of leadership and management. We will explore a comprehensive management framework for replicating a sustainable high performance organization. The model has implications for owners, managers, professionals, coaches and teams that performance in business, sport, and in life...
