Leadership Guru and Talent Champion Tom Peters takes on Healthcare in his latest blog: Dispatches from the NEW WORLD of WORK. With all the passion and fortitude for which he has come to be known, after a couple of rants- Tom provides us another of his signature lists of facts/thoughts this time giving us: Tom Peters/The U.S. Healthcare14.

I had the pleasure of meeting Tom several years ago through a former Russell Reynolds colleague, Juli Ann Reynolds, now President & CEO of TomPetersCompany! , I’m sure he wouldn’t remember, at their offices in Charlestown, MA. Tom’s writing (I was reading Re-Imagine! at the time) and the energy and ideas of Juli Ann and her team got me truly geeked about talent and leadership specifically. I am lucky to be writing, researching and in some small way forwarding thought leadership around talent management and leadership. Thanks Tom and all who have similarly championed talent for changing the management mindset and leadership vernacular!

I find Tom’s new charge well aligned with his previous work. It seems a natural extension of leadership- as healthcare impacts us all, individually, collectively, personally and professionally. Healthcare benefits, expenses, administration and availability are a huge part of talent management. It is time to shift our thinking on healthcare and who better to shift our mindset on this prickly subject than Tom Peters?
