Testimonials
  • Dave Baehr of ROCs has been extremely effective in introducing evidence based project management techniques to our greater leadership team. In addition, Dave has also “rolled up his sleeves” to work collaboratively with the clinical operations team, who are eager but inexperienced with successful project management, to tackle the “real world” issues that often derail even the most compelling process improvements.
    He has been so well received within the Clinical Operations Leadership Team, that our hospice recently decided to expand his project management mentoring to other operational areas such as technology and human resources. Dave has become an invaluable member of our hospice “family” educating all of us on skills critical to our future success.

Leadership Excellence

ROCs leadership coaching helps provide a blueprint for operating a hospice as an integrated, coherent, and coordinated system. ROCs coaches help your hospice to define itself, set goals, measure performance, and challenge itself to be an ever improving organization.

ROCs executive leadership coaches, with experience as senior hospice leaders, work directly with the CEO, senior leaders, and the greater leadership team to address the fundamental problems that underlie major transformation.

Your ROCs coaching team will use proven methods that provide the guidance, structure, and tools of accountability that support moving these concepts into reality within your agency. This will allow your hospice to truly change behavior.

Think of the professional athlete who knows his performance, while good, can only move to excellent with focus, practice and discipline. The ROCs coach is like the “personal trainer” for your team, sharing objective feedback, guiding change management, capturing best practices, providing “hands on” education, mentoring, and promoting accountability. Tapping into this external resource is like adding another seasoned senior hospice leader to your leadership team to help guide and structure your agency’s operations. In these days of “doing more with less” – wouldn’t it be nice to add extra resources to focus on the changes that must come to remain financially viable while delivering a high quality hospice experience for the board of directors, leadership team, community, patients/families, physicians, and employees?
