Abstract
The SSM Health Care System is a Catholic, not-for-profit, multihospital health care system with headquarters in St. Louis, Missouri. Sister Mary Jean Ryan, FSM, the President and Chief Executive Officer, has led the implementation of continuous quality improvement (CQI) throughout the system since 1990. This article presents excerpts from a speech Sister Ryan delivered at the system's annual leadership conference in 1990. Sister Ryan delivered this speech at the conclusion of a retreat where the principles of CQI were introduced to the SSM Health Care System leadership. The editors believe this inspiring speech provides insight into the kind of leadership needed to successfully implement quality management.
