Based on your readings, what have you learned about high performance and balanced scorecard/competing forces? Are measures missing?
What measures are superior?
What is your root cause analysis of what makes an organization high performing?

2. Define what quality healthcare means from the perspective of Public health
Here's blooms theory again:
Knowledge: "Here's what I know about xxxxx after researching the most recent scholarly journals and articles." Then show what you know or have come to know. Note whether this information is new to you, solidifies your preconceived notions or changes your knowledge set by introducing factors you had not considered. For the Org paper show that you clearly know the organization, how/why it is structured etc.
Comprehension: "Beyond knowing what the scholars are saying about xxxxx, I understand the following dynamics/complexities/intricacies about xxxxxx and the diversity of thought about the issues." Expand beyond knowledge to understanding. A non healthcare example would be the difference between knowing the names of the planets vs understanding our galaxy.
Application: "To apply the principles from knowledge and comprehension of the issues I can transfer these concepts from theory to practice and demonstrating learning by applying them to a real life situation" Here is a case study that shows application or.....here is my application of xxxxx principles to a real life situation from my experience."
Analysis: " My cause and effect analysis is that zzzzzzz drives these issues. This is a root cause analysis" My comparative analysis shows that X compared to Y shows the similarities and differences in the issues. Knowing what causes or drives these issues deepens my understanding of "why" things exist as they do.
Synthesis: "After understanding these issues and the inherent problems I searched for a best practice. I found (citation) is considered a best practice/organizational structure in addressing these problems." But even a best practice needs improvement. Therefore my new and unique idea, building on best practices, is to xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" I researched to see if this is a new idea and whether it has been done/tried. It has/has not.
Evaluation: "Given my new idea of xxxxxxx. The possible benefits/pros of this idea are xxxxxxxxx. But this idea has some possible downsides as well. They are yyyyyyyyyyyyy. Additionally I anticipate that there may be some unintended consequences of my new idea. They might be xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.
