Research by Professor John Kotter of Harvard Business School found that 70% of change efforts failed due to lack of sufficient buy-in. If you want to make sure that your pitch is successful, present your case to the C-Suite according to what’s important to them using the language they speak.
In order to build a relationship with the hospital C-Suite you need to be viewed as a trusted advisor. When you speak the right language to hospital and health care executives, they feel understood. They believe that you are an ally who solves problems, versus a vendor who hawks products. Effective sales messaging that emphasizes the outcomes they care about about helps you earn their trust and win the deal.
