I work with stakeholders to deliver cost improvement programs and track their benefits. Previous roles have been mainly within IT project management, although I have change management and transformation experience.<\/p>\n<p>Having successfully changed careers four times I actively mentor, coach and develop women in the workplace. In my spare time, I enjoy cooking and experimenting with original recipes by adding my own twist.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Achievements<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>One of my key professional achievements has included the implementation of a Clinical Information System across one of England\u2019s largest NHS Primary Care Trusts. This resulted in the Trust receiving Foundation status.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in my career, I delivered a project that reduced the length of patient hospital stay and identified deteriorating patients. The project was recognised by the independent healthcare industry and nominated as a finalist in \u2018Best use of Technology\u2019 at the Laing and Buisson Awards (2012).<\/p>\n<p>I am proud to have successfully transitioned from being a clinician to being a project management professional, while predominantly remaining within healthcare. I am very passionate about healthcare and the way it is delivered, especially with a large ageing population.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Aspirations<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>As a local resident, the course content and flexibility offered by Kent Business School was a key factor in me achieving optimal work-life balance. On completing\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kent.ac.uk\/courses\/postgraduate\/291\/kent-mba\">The Kent MBA<\/a>, I plan to utilise my skills and experience in a senior management role where I can be innovative in delivering transformation, change and strategy.<\/p>\n<p>On a personal level, I hope to build partnerships with companies to promote sponsorship, mentoring and coaching within their organisations.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Advice<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Too many people duplicate the same idea or process, but there is always room for individuality so stand out and have a strong brand.<\/p>\n<p>Be daring, be fearless, and embrace change.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>To find out more and apply for the Kent MBA at Kent Business School, visit <\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kent.ac.uk\/courses\/postgraduate\/291\/kent-mba\">The Kent MBA<\/a><\/strong><strong> webpage.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Kent MBA 2018 (Part-time) \u201cThere is always room for individuality, so stand out and have a strong brand.\u201d\u00a0 I am a project management professional &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/thekentmbacommunity\/2018\/10\/10\/adebisi-adedotun-abraham\/\">Read&nbsp;more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":61662,"featured_media":163,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[199953],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/thekentmbacommunity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/174"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/thekentmbacommunity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/thekentmbacommunity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/thekentmbacommunity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/61662"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/thekentmbacommunity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=174"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/thekentmbacommunity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/174\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":296,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/thekentmbacommunity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/174\/revisions\/296"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/thekentmbacommunity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/163"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/thekentmbacommunity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=174"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/thekentmbacommunity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=174"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/thekentmbacommunity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=174"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
