I am experienced in cooperate training and business development, with hands-on training in the areas of communication, business development, customer service, negotiation, business strategy, team building, reporting and others. During my MBA in Healthcare Management course, I took a unit on communication skills for managers that exposed me to management communication. I have gained experience attending conferences and classes and conducting research that has enhanced my skills in general. I also had an opportunity to hone my research, writing and communication skills at Haw Hamburg University in Hamburg, Germany during a summer school on Education and Training Research in Health Sciences.
My years of experience has helped me appreciate the importance of communication in the business environment. I have worked with key health stakeholders and created an integrated internal and external communications strategy to ensure that these stakeholders are effectively engaged and that they understand the company’s strategic objectives.
With my extensive experience in communication, I have gained comprehensive knowledge and practical skills on how to collaborate and interact better with subordinates, peers as well as external partners.
I currently founded a company called ScholarPark that not only provide a step by step guide for application of available domestic and international scholarship opportunities.
