    Abstract:
    As quality improvement programs are initiated in growing numbers of hospitals, senior executives in those hospitals find themselves addressing a range of issues: team building, leadership and interpersonal interaction. CEO Jim Biltz and nurse executive Linda Mild of 760-bed HCA Wesley Medical Center, Wichita, KS, tell Hospitals Staff Editor Paula Eubanks how their participative management style and the hospital's continuous quality improvement (CQI) initiative have fostered new levels of teamwork and shared vision among the institution's top managers.
