Subject: [HEALTHMGMT] AoM symposium on Action Research in Healthcare
I' writing to call your attention to a symposium that is part of the ODC
offering at AOM in August, that I think will be of interest to many of us in
HCM. The presenters (a mix of physicians and social scientists are a lively
group. They'll talk about the action research approach to healthcare, with
as much emphasis on practical as scholarly outcomes. Details below:

Contributions At Individual, Team And National Network Levels Of
Intervention"
