Dear Hiring Manager:
As an Organizational Leader in Healthcare Administration, I am eager to obtain a leadership opportunity at your Organization.
I am a graduate from Concordia University, Wayne State University and University of Windsor. Upon completion of my education, I received my master’s in organizational leadership, with a concentration in Health Care Administration, and a B.S in General Sciences and a B.S in Radiation Therapy.
My current position as an CoreVisory Operations Manager of three departments has provided me with opportunities to develop and refine my leadership skills, time management, and problem solving skills, which are very critical for directing and leading diverse groups successfully.
I currently work collaboratively with various departments in an effort to increase client/vendor satisfaction and improve quality and efficiency of our work. My enthusiasm and commitment have helped me become a valuable member of the Organization. Aside from my operation managing efforts, I take pride in taking part of employee engagement and teamwork activities at my Organization.
Furthermore, having worked at the University of Michigan, I excel in areas of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Faculty, staff, and student’s development, service excellence, patient and family centered care, project management, quality and safety management, and critical thinking.
I am a recognized clinical leader as well as a national speaker for The American Registry of Radiologic Technologists. My passion for my work has been recognized and published in a Quality and Safety in Radiation Oncology book. I continue to develop and maintain strong, collaborative working relations with management, faculty, staff, and community members, with a maintained focus on the best interests of the patients and families.
As a results-driven team-oriented individual, I welcome the opportunity to meet with you and discuss how my extensive leadership experience can contribute to a leadership opportunity in your Organization.
Thank you for your consideration, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely,
Jo Dekmak M.S., B.S., RT(T)
