The development of an institutional culture cannot be left to chance. One must articulate the desirable managerial variables that will establish the mores of and for the institution.

And although pay increases are moving up faster among top hospital executives than in industry, overall hospital executive pay still lags. In addition, survey results look at such issues as linking executive pay to various measures of performance.
