Staff education will be an important component of managing changes in health care. The development of a "learning organization" will necessitate developing management processes to encourage team building and participation. This article describes a management process created to develop a comprehensive staff development plan for a rehabilitation center. Four components of the management process are described: formation and articulation of a mission statement, establishment of an organizational structure, development of educational plan procedures, and description of the role of the management team in developing the plan. Strategies for plan implementation and evaluation are also discussed.
