Healthcare management: a letter to the president.

This imaginary letter to a hospital president examines current literature on management and outlines those traits that are applicable to the healthcare field. According to the findings, effective managers have a flair for communication; are persistent, reliable, and coherent; have positive self-regard; focus their energy and attention only on the task at hand; and neither fear nor avoid failure. In addition, creativity through personal commitment should be stressed. Managers must learn that it is not only acceptable to care about others, but that it is a necessary prerequisite for effective management.
