    Making the Case for Transparency

    MGMA's 2022 Medical Practice Excellence: Financial and Operations Conference kicks off today with a keynote presentation by Matt Griswold and Don Harvey of People Centric Consulting Group. After a successful career as a corporate engineer at lofty organizations such as ADM and 3M, Harkey founded People Centric Consulting in 2012 with a goal in mind: He wanted to transform company culture, one company at a time. 

    “I saw pockets of healthy and unhealthy cultures all within the same company created with the same pool of people,” Harkey says. “I became very interested in what creates a healthy culture and discovered that it’s all about implementing systems and processes that put people at the center of the organization.” 

    During their presentation, Harkey and Griswold will focus on one aspect of company culture that they’ve seen work—transparency, specifically, financial transparency. Harkey and Griswold believe that financial transparency is a key to earning trust between management and employees and helps empower employees at every level of an organization.  

    In a blog from their website, Harkey and Griswold write about what happens when a company lacks transparency. “When any misalignment occurs between teams, departments, and locations inside of an organization, silos appear. Teams focus on their processes and purpose, creating a they vs. we company. This spirals into a decrease in sales, poor customer service, or a backlog of invoicing and billing, which all leads to a culture of blame and ego.” 

    MS1: Knowing the Score: Making the Case for Financial Transparency will be held Sunday, March 19 at 4 PM ET in Windsong 5-8 with keynote speakers Don Harkey and Matt Griswold of People Centric Consulting Group.
