Another quick post for the followers. I wanted to update everyone on the work we are doing here at the hospital. This whole week we have rolled out our 'new manager training' program for the future hospital administrative staff. Every day we have been holding meetings based on our training program, which we hope to conclude by the end of my 8 weeks here. The meetings have been going very well and we are making great progress!
The management training is right up Tim Clark's alley, with his experience in the Pharmaceutical industry. This training is also putting my MBA to good use, a degree I have received questions about since I signed up for it.
Many meetings have been held during a time without any electricity/power, so it has been darker and hotter than we would want (and remember, this is the nicest building in this entire area). This is how it has been since we have gotten here. Internet cuts out and power cuts out frequently, but as Dr. Mukalay said to us yesterday: "Welcome to Africa". Makes you appreciate what you have in the States even more.
We have our task from Project HOPE, and we have our task from the Hospital CEO. Starting with this week and for the next 6 weeks we will make as much progress as we can, finish our assignments, and see Cameroon culture!
