Question: Comment 1

There are numerous ways to communicate with the stakeholders as well as the executives of the hospital. Communication is an important means of transmitting information as well as making other understand oneself. As a leader, I would start sharing my outreach program vision by using written communication. This will help me share effectively and thoroughly through explaining how this program will benefit the entire community. I would also organize a meeting to provide a professional presentation concerning the program's benefits. I would use non-verbal communication methodologies to make the community members see my vision like making eye contact, having an open stance and smiling among others. I would use effective verbal communication through speaking clearly as well as allow time for others to communicate (Huber, 2018). This will help communicate effectively my vision for the outreach program.

Strategic management may be described as organization management based on its vision. To accomplish this, one needs to develop a vision, set objectives, develop strategies, execute the strategies as well as evaluate the outcomes. I would use the strategic management process to make the outreach program vision a reality. In the written communication as well as the presentation I will ensure that my mission and vision of the outreach program are stated clearly to make sure that stakeholders and the executives understand the purpose of this program. Setting objectives mean explaining the program goal and creating an implementation strategy mean explaining my plan on how to reach the goals. After the executives and the stakeholders decide to execute the strategies for developing an outreach program, then I would evaluate the program effectiveness constantly (Huber, 2018). As a leader, using the strategic management will allow me understand the community needs, determine the community future and set achievable goals and plans.

Comment 2

There are a wide range of tools that can be used for outreach program and implementation of strategic management. Strategic management is defined as the process by which managers of the firm analyze the internal and external environments for the purpose of formulating strategies and allocating resources to develop a competitive advantage in an industry that allows for the successful achievement 00resources, processes and skills and also monitoring of action steps in order to cope with unpredictable internal and external factors. Management in this context therefore indicates the ability to manage the constant changing circumstances, which organizations have to face regularly. Strategic management is therefore said to "understand the strategic position of an organization, its strategic choices for the future and turning strategies into action." Huber, D. (2014). Strategic management is, in terms of decision making, not only in the organization of operation-based procedures but also includes more organizational, non- routine and more complex procedures.

I will use stakeholder approach for the outreach program become reality. The idea of stakeholder approach to strategic management, suggests that managers must formulate and implement processes 00is to manage and integrate the relationships and interests of shareholders, employees, customers, suppliers, communities and other groups in a way that ensures the long-term success of the firm. A stakeholder approach accentuates active management of the business environment, relationships and the promotion of shared interests. Stakeholder approach encourages management to develop strategies by looking out from the firm and identifying, and investing in, all the relationships that will ensure long-term success.
