Ma Integration – Managing the Integration of Work Streams

Ma integration is a mathematical process that uses the integral formula in order to determine areas of objects in varying dimensions. The formula is frequently employed in engineering and physics to calculate center of gravity, mass moment of inertia, and kinetic energy of moving objects. It can also be useful in other areas, such as determining the speed of an object and determining its path.

In order to manage the integration of work streams requires dedicated and visible leadership as well as clear communication processes. A common reason for failing to integrate is clashing cultures, like an acute care mindset as opposed to health care that is based on a population-based perspective (Hardy et al. 1999; Coburn, 2001). Leaders must support and promote the same vision throughout the organization, while creating an environment that supports this vision.

One of the biggest risks in integration is a loss of key talent. The time gap between new management structures and organizational structures, as well as the inability to address cultural issues can cause highly skilled executives to leave for new opportunities. This loss can be reduced by ensuring that the leadership team is maintained throughout the transition period and by establishing an employee identification system which is based more on skills than seniority.

Internal newsletters and project management tools and interactive platforms are useful for letting stakeholders know how progress is going on integration milestones and allowing stakeholders to give feedback. Meetings with stakeholders are a great method to communicate, keep momentum, and establish trust and engage. Regular updates keep employees engaged in the process, while explaining how the integration has improved business results and created value for shareholders.
