This pressure has motivated organizations to reinvent themselves, forcing management and marketing to take a more active role. Due to this reinvention, organizations must incorporate a stronger culture of management and marketing orientation that allows companies to define their course, optimize their resources, communicate with their stakeholders more efficiently, and encourage customers to become more involved with the company. This need is particularly urgent in the healthcare sector, as its weight in the economy has grown recently and it must prepare for economic recovery.
