(firmenpresse) - CINCINNATI, OH -- (Marketwire) -- 04/03/12 -- R. Edward Howell, CEO of (UVA), is featured in "," by .
Thomas Jefferson founded the University of Virginia (UVA) in 1819, and The School of Medicine officially opened in 1825. Jefferson considered UVA to be one of his greatest achievements -- so much so he had it engraved on his tombstone. But Jefferson also knew it would take great leaders with courage and skill to protect, grow, and steward UVA through the ages. It would also take noble people that could put aside their own self-interests.
In 2002, R. Edward Howell stepped into this role and became Chief Executive Officer of UVA. In the two-part series "," Mr. Howell shares leadership lessons and insights from the unique perspective of a former high school biology teacher and football, basketball, and track coach from Zanesville, Ohio -- living up to the aspirations and legacy of Thomas Jefferson. You'll learn that:
Stewardship is not about keeping the organization intact; instead, you must make an organization better than you found it.
Stewardship is future-tense thinking and decision-making with only one goal: leaving your organization better than it is today to serve those who come for care.
Great achievements are not children of marginal successes.
Mr. Howell will reveal how to ask and answer the noblest of questions, "What's your plan for leaving your organization better than you found it?"
