    The final section of my Philadelphia University portfolio represents the specialized skills and knowledge that I have gained during my time here as a student.

    Ronald G. Spaeth Leadership Style

    Lessons I have learned from this interview with Ronald G. Spaeth, as a graduate student in healthcare administration by reading about Mr. Spaeth’s education, awards and career accomplishments. For instance, Spaeth received a Gold Medal Award for his outstanding contributions as a leader in healthcare. I have learned that receiving a great award can start a successful career. Though, receiving an award is a part of career success. Completing an earned degree in business administration, and/or another Master’s degree is another great start for a professional successful career. Mr. Speath’s career goals were met by his educational background and work experience. I have learned that career success takes effectively working with students, leaders…

    Health Field Admission Essay

    When I entered college I wasn’t sure I wanted to look into the health field. I did ultimately decide to go on the pre-health track and am in the process of determining what field and role in the medical field I want to pursue. I have thought about professions I want to consider which include pharmacist, physician assistant, or a physician. I have realized that I need to gain a different kind of experience in health care and there will lie the key to my decision. I might know about different services and roles in the medical profession but I don’t understand how the doctors work individually and how they all work interdependently with other medical staff . I have no clinical experience or any practice related to the health field, which is why I hope a program such as the Health Careers Opportunity Program can offer me that invaluable experience. I am a social, investigative, and enterprising individual who is willing to communicate, lead, and guide others and am anxious to identify my niche so that I can prepare…
