Manager Meet Adam Levenson, New Blog Manager
Who am I?
My name is Adam Levenson, and I come from a family of professionals and directors of all types of health care. My father, for example, has its own dental practice in my hometown outside of Boston, Massachusetts. During my childhood, I saw him try (and often struggle) to juggle the responsibilities of patient treatment and to be the boss. It was clear to me that to be good at one does not necessarily make you an expert to another. To be both effective and efficient leader clinician, you need extensive training.
In college, I studied international relations at the University of Pennsylvania. As I learned about different countries, societies and cultures, I am always struck by the large health disparities worldwide. Now that the MHA @ GW blog manager, I am finally able to sink my teeth into this issue. Speaking of ...
