Project plan and expected timelines and management technique also talk about risk management and downside reduction for that p&c side. Especially if they did work comp or realestate.

Context is healthcare consulting manager, 2nd round interview. Company has a diversified client base outside of hc. Are work sample presentations irregular at this level?

Umm, client confidentiality

Yes, i am acutely aware of this. No client data, names - im not even going to use anything i have made for work - but speak about problem approach, thought process, and so on. I am looking for advice on content and flow, like for example, director 1, if you had to interview a manager candidate based on a presentation, what key things would you look for?

Can you articulate the problem? Do you understand whatโ€™s needed to get it done? What does success look like? Have you thought through all potential risks? How will I be able to keep you accountable? If Iโ€™m hiring a manager they set the plan and buck stops with them.

Thanks for your response. So far, i walk through the statement of problem, the assessment and findings phase, collaborate work with the client, and the foundations i laid to ensure that the change would be sustainable. Thanks for pointing out the risks - i think its something i think about intuitively during the implementation planning phase through available data and assumptions. The topic i decided on was a revenue cycle realignment at centralized office. Most of the risk i dealt with was buy in, teachability, politics...basically the human centered component. So one of my issues is that i manage people through experience, observation, and intuition. Its like of like... if you are a reasonably intelligent, logical person, and you were tasked with improving a process, you might intuitively use PDCA ... are there any commonly used phrases in big 4, since im not a part of that world, that you can share with me to describe some of the human related risk areas?

Hi. Iโ€™m looking for advice. I recently interviewed for a job with the EPA. The hiring manager and team seems like it would be a good fit and I would be working on projects that would be what I want to be doing as a career. The job description has not been written up yet. How likely would the job be remote versus telework? My boyfriend has said he would not want to relocate. It almost seems like a clichรฉ situation and I would be very conflicted about moving away from him.

I have been in health care for over 20 years. I started a new job last year and noticed that for various reasons, such as late submissions, the company will change my agreed-upon pay. So far they are close to 2000 less than if they paid the amount promised. Has anyone else experienced this? Is this legal? Is there someone who can help me out?
