Executive Summary – write this section of your business plan last. The executive summary gives a high-level overview of your entire project, start to finish.

Marketing Plan – The marketing plan discusses the details of the daVinci system and how it was implemented. For this section, concentrate on the 4P’s of Marketing:

Additional Comments: My general comments, guidance, suggestions…

At some point in your Healthcare Management career, you will be asked to step into a decision-making role. That decision may not involve a large scale equipment/process implementation such as the daVinci surgical system, but it will surely impact you and other departments around you. The goal of this project is to make you think strategically about all aspects of the decision making process, and what elements are used in supporting that decision.

* The required format is APA 6^th. Formatting is important, as well as the usual grammar, punctuation and overall writing ability necessary for today’s professional environment. Dot your ‘I’s’, cross your ‘T’s’ and spell things correctly…make it flow. The easiest way to catch things is by using the ‘spelling and grammar check’ function on the review tab. It also helps to take a break and look at things later with ‘fresh eyes’.
