“Winning” by Jack Welch is a great book to increase everyone's knowledge. Jack Welch believes that business is a game and that the ultimate goal is to become the winner. “Winning” has four main sections. The first section outlines the basics of Welch's business philosophy: the need for clear and tangible goals and values, extreme sincerity in the work environment, strong differentiation among employees, and ways to involve every employee in the game. The next three sections cover victories within the company, against the competition, and throughout your career. While such principles are not new, they could hardly be omitted, as they are the key to success in any organization and can be applied to my future career in healthcare as an occupational therapist.

It is a company's expression to its customers, employees and the world of the purpose of its existence. To have an impact, an organization must have people who reflect its mission and values. Healthcare fields such as occupational therapy must employ individuals with the goal of helping clients have independent, productive, and fulfilling lives. In other words, when the daily crisis of life approaches, you need to have people who are faithful to the company's mission and values, rather than disconnecting. To move forward, you need big ideas. As an occupational therapist you have to be creative.
