Introduction As we head into the holiday season, I’d like to share with you some of the highlights from materials we published in 2015. The articles in the first section of this e-book, and the videos and infographics in the second section, relate directly to the challenges the healthcare industry currently faces. The articles in the third section present more general management advice from the pages of the McKinsey Quarterly; we believe that their cross-industry insights are valuable for the discussions in our industry at the moment. We designed this e-book with your convenience in mind. Almost everything in it can be read online or offline. (The only exception are the videos, which are too large to download.) We hope these materials stimulate your thinking as you contemplate the year ahead. We’d be happy to discuss any of them with you. In the interim, we wish you a joyous holiday season—and a happy and successful 2016.
