The University of Toledo John B. and Lillian E. Neff College of Business and Innovation’s Advanced Leadership Academy (ALA) completed its spring semester curriculum with an event filled with wisdom, guidance and fire. Yes, fire.
A select group of 13 ALA students was chosen to participate in the ProMedica Track of the ALA Program. This additional requirement was reserved for this special cohort of participants that wished to learn more about ProMedica and both the business and medical side of the healthcare field.
The Track culminated in a special event at the Imagination Station in downtown Toledo. Prior to this event, the group also visited Flower Hospital and the ProMedica headquarters.
“ProMedica has generously funded the ALA this year,” said program director, Dr. Jenell Wittmer. “With their investment, we are able to grow the program and offer graduate students additional learning opportunities. ProMedica also has invested their time and expertise in the ProMedica Track program by providing these select students with access to networking and learning opportunities with ProMedica executives - an invaluable experience.”
During the Imagination Station function, members of the ProMedica executive team spoke to the group of students about the challenging and rewarding aspects of leadership and shared personal anecdotes of their journey to success within the healthcare organization.
