Amerinet Executive Briefing Focuses on Building High Performance Workforce

ST. LOUIS--(Business Wire)--
Helping organizations build a high performance workforce was the topic of a
recent education series offered by Amerinet Workforce Solutions partner and
business performance expert Tom Olivo.

"Healthcare leaders have an obligation to provide the best care possible for
their patients," explained Todd Ebert, president and CEO of Amerinet. "Having
best practice tools to manage performance and talent acquisition is a key
component of top performing organizations."

The session focused on how healthy and fit cultures contribute most to high
performance by defining and measuring employee commitment and engagement. It
addressed best practices in connecting an employee survey measurement process to
performance and talent management. Olivo also discussed the impact of employee
commitment and engagement on productivity, patient outcomes and financial
results.

Working for the past six years with healthcare executives, partners and more
than 200 healthcare systems, Olivo`s team has developed a structural model for
performance excellence, which has helped them determine important factors
including:

* How healthy and fit cultures create high-performance organizations
* How to quantify "culture"
* How to measure the human capital HR workforce
* How to best measure turnover
* What drives patient outcomes and financial results

"What creates the best place to work is a combination of business practices and
operational effectiveness," said Olivo. "To improve their financials, healthcare
organizations cannot cut their way to high performance."

President of Success Profiles, Olivo has measured the performance of more than
6,000 business units in virtually every industry. Success Profiles is one of
Amerinet`s Workforce Solutions, providing the strategy, services and tools to
build a competitive and productive workforce.

The presentation was part of Amerinet`s Executive Briefing series, which
addresses today`s top healthcare issues. A free copy of the executive briefing
