Summary of interview: • The person I chose to interview was my mom, Linda Kane • Linda believes that managers are born leaders • The management style that Linda uses to manage her employees is motivational leadership • The importance in having a management job is to enjoy what you are doing and adapt to changes in healthcare
How Linda became a Manager: • Linda went to school in Colorado and finished her degree in New York and graduated with a B.S. in Medical Technology and then interned and received her National Certification in Medical Technology and a Specialist certification in Microbiology • Started out as a Medical Technologist • Linda then worked her way up to become the Supervisor of Medical Technology • Because of her passion to make changes in her work environment, she then became the Director of the laboratory • She currently has the title of Laboratory Administrative Director in St.Augustine Florida
Linda’s Viewpoint of being a Manager: • Some people are born leaders • Sometimes challenging when there is not enough staff available and also when Linda has to bring home work with her • Rewarding to be able to make healthy and constructive changes in work environment • Linda believes that using motivation to encourage staff, such as rewards and recognition helps staff to complete tasks on time and in the proper way
Key points of interview: • Positive managing skills helps staff accomplish tasks correctly and effectively • Linda uses graphs and charts to identify issues in the work environment • Work from the ground up when wanting to become a manager
Take home messages: • Linda advises new managers to continually keep up with law changes and changes in the hospital, for example Obama Care • Know how to divide tasks equally among staff when the number of people working are limited • Motivational leading is a better managing style than punishment in the work environment
Conclusion: • Good communication with staff and others is key to being a successful manager • Know all there is to know about the company you are working for • Keep yourself updated on new laws and changes occurring in the hospital • Even though being a manger has its rewards such as making positive changes, it can be stressful such as not having staff who follow through on tasks
