Dr. Spear is a Senior Lecturer in MIT’s Management and Engineering schools, a faculty affiliate at Harvard Medical School and a Senior Fellow at the Institute for Healthcare Improvement. He is an internationally recognized expert on leadership, innovation, and operational excellence, and an authority on how select companies in various industries generate unmatchable performance by converting improvement and innovation from inspiration to repeatable, broad-based, skill-based disciplines.
WIHI recorded Steve Spear’s remarks on December 11, 2017, in Orlando, Florida, at the Institute for Healthcare Improvement’s 29th Annual National Forum on Quality Improvement in Health Care. Dr. Spear has a well-deserved reputation as an engaging speaker who equally draws on his own life experience and work with multiple industries to point out that better ways to do things are absolutely within reach. Solutions often reside in the new behaviors we’re willing to adopt. Steve Spear is passionate about improving health care so great care occurs as advertised, every time, all the time.
