I'm really impressed by how you've laid out your personal goal of becoming an AVP and crafted a strategic plan to make it happen. Your SMART goal, SWOT analysis, and interaction with mentors demonstrate a comprehensive approach to advancing your career. The knowledge you've gained from your course, especially in healthcare finance and strategic alliances, will be invaluable in your leadership position.

To continue progressing, focusing on meeting deadlines and actively participating in discussions could offer more insights and networking opportunities. In general, your proactive attitude and commitment to personal growth are truly inspiring. I agree that maintaining a work life balance is a bit challenging but we always have to find a way to ensure we are not neglecting one.

Student B,

Hello,

Your dedication to finishing your doctoral program is impressive, especially as you have reached the important milestones of submitting your proposal, obtaining IRB approval, conducting research, and defending your dissertation. Your decision to work closely with your Research Supervisor, quickly addressing revisions, and identifying suitable companies for your study's target population demonstrates a proactive and well-organized approach. I'm glad to hear that you found the study of Porter's Diamond Model to be fascinating. Understanding the complexities of global markets and the impact of various factors on industry support is essential for both research and practical applications. Engaging in discussions with classmates and participating in live chats has clearly added value to your learning experience. I think my favorite part of the course is the class interactions with fellow classmates. I also get to learn a lot. It also helps to know that other students are experiencing similar challenges.
