LEADERSHIP & THE ROLE OF MANAGERS
Identify a health care program manager or coordinator that you would like to interview for this course. It is critical that you interview someone who can serve as a case study for your Session Long Project for Module 1–3 of this course. You should plan on a detailed interview of the person selected. You should plan on 1.5-2 hour interview with your case study. I will provide you with general guidelines for each module and you can add specific questions that are of interest to you. I recommend that you interview the individual after you are familiar with and comfortable with the entire course content as you will use the information gathered from the interview for SLPs for Modules 2 thru 5.
1. Identify a manager or coordinator for a healthcare program that you would like to interview.
