¶ … robust and important changes within the health care environment. Many of these changes have been the direct result of globalization, increased stakeholder expectations and technological improvements. These global changes, an increasingly diverse population and spiraling costs, require that the modern health care professional work to improve organization skills, efficiency, clinical and business knowledge, and the ability to effectively lead in when faced with different organizational challenges (Johnson, 2009; Hyde & Cook, 2004).
Professionally, my career goal is to finish graduate school with an MBA specializing in Health Care Management. During my coursework, I hope to obtain additional mid-level management experience in the field, increase my knowledge of IT systems and leadership / organizational methods, using a combination of experience and professional education to further my goals. Eventually, I hope to become a health care administrator and faculty facilitator for Health Care management programs at the University of Phoenix.

Change Management After recession, many employers expected their employees to inject more hours into work than they did before the recession. This trend is expected to continue in the near future because employers believe that working extra hours increase productivity. This can however, be dangerous in the long run because it affects employee well being and retention (Lepore, 2011). Organizations that pressurize their employees to work extra hours to increase productivity
Lack of accountability, transparency and integrity, ineffectiveness, inefficiency and unresponsiveness to human development remain problematic (UNDP). Poverty remains endemic in most Gulf States with health care and opportunities for quality education poor or unavailable, degraded habitats including urban pollution and poor soil conditions from inappropriate farming practices.
