My professional talents and experience lie in leading others
to attain organizations' strategic objectives. My heart and
faith have dictated that I do this in organizations such as
Detroit Receiving Hospital and Presbyterian Villages of Michigan,
whose missions are to care for people who are highly vulnerable.
At Presbyterian Villages of Michigan all that we do and our
methods of serving are based on the Christian foundation of
the organization: mission guided by Christian compassion,
concern and stewardship, which provides seniors with quality
services, care and housing. To be working in an intentionally
faith-based organization, especially one related to my own
church, is a wonderful, positive experience for me.
The term "servant leader" is perhaps used too casually
in the corporate world. The image of Christ washing the feet
of the disciples is far more profound and moving than anything
I might do on a daily basis. My role as a senior manager is
to make it possible for others to do their work, serving them
appropriately so that they can serve our residents, their
families and the greater community. In that way we will bear
a strong witness to our faith, demonstrating Christ's love
for work in our world.
