Dynamic healthcare environment demands new career-planning tools.
In 1997, HFMA launched an initiative designed to help members excel in their careers. A primary goal of that initiative was the development of a professional growth model incorporating the key skills, knowledge, and behaviors that contribute to successful performance. This model, in turn, would be used as the basis for the development of assessment tools to assist members in evaluating both their strengths and areas in which growth is needed to further their careers. While work on the assessment tools is still under way, the model itself can serve as a valuable signpost for healthcare financial professionals reviewing their career paths.
