Abstract
Part case study, part manifesto, this ground-breaking new book by a doctor and a healthcare executive uses real-life anecdotes and the logic of lean thinking to make a convincing argument that a revolutionary new kind of healthcare - lean healthcare - is urgently needed and eminently doable.
In On the Mend: Revolutionizing Healthcare to Save Lives and Transform the Industry John Toussaint, MD, former CEO of ThedaCare, and Roger A. Gerard, PhD, its chief learning officer, candidly describe the triumphs and stumbles of a seven-year journey to lean healthcare, an effort that continues today and that has slashed medical errors, improved patient outcomes, raised staff morale, and saved $27 million dollars in costs without layoffs.

Abstract
Is success created by financial, human, or intellectual capital? Is it born of the inherent qualities of a leader or the result of strategic planning? In this book, "passion capital" is what makes a leader truly successful. More valuable than money, human resources, and intellectual property, passion capital is the foundation upon which all other forms of capital are built. It is the energy, intensity, and sustainability leaders use to build lasting value and competitive advantage.
