DESCRIPTION:HEALTH MANAGEMENT SEMINAR\n   Falling between the cracks: Devel
 oping and sustaining responsibility in a professional organization\n\nGrae
 me Currie\nProfessor of Public Management\nWarwick Business School\nWednes
 day September 23rd\, 2015 - 4:00 – 6:00 PM\nBronfman Bldg.\, Rm. 360\nAbst
 ract\nThe analytical focus of the study is upon a complex problem addresse
 d by a multi-professional organization. The empirical starting point is th
 e death of a teenage girl\, suffering from chronic anorexia\, in the inten
 sive care department of an acute hospital. ‘Eloise’ had been subject to va
 rious clinical and therapeutic interventions from a range of health profes
 sionals over six years\, during which her condition deteriorated\, eventua
 lly leading to her premature death in the intensive care unit of a hospita
 l. To quote one of the senior doctors involved in her care during this tim
 e: “At the level of the organization\, which has many professionals\, and 
 indeed has many disparate organizations within the bigger organization\, e
 ach of us did what we were required to do\, our own thing\, me the nutriti
 onal intervention\, but without a collective sense of what we were doing a
 nd how what we each did was related to others’ efforts”. Reinforcing such 
 an assertion\, and reflected in the title of this paper\, a senior organiz
 ational manager within the empirical case stated: “Eloise ‘fell between th
 e cracks’ of professionals and organizations”.\nForeshadowing theoretical 
 analysis\, managerial practices are highlighted across successive temporal
  episodes in the aftermath of Eloise’s death\, designed to: rally the mult
 i-professional organization\; develop the professional response towards re
 sponsibility\; sustain the professional response towards responsibility. D
 imensions of managerial practice encompass: affective management of profes
 sional sentiment of care\; balancing influence with accountability\; incor
 poration of responsibility. Considering these management practices theoret
 ically\, analysis provides insight about control of professionals towards 
 responsibility for complex problems that cross organizational and jurisdic
 tional boundaries.\nPLEASE RSVP BY SEPTEMBER 21st (kristen [dot] oliver [a
