Having
worked at several diverse institutions throughout her career, Glenda
Gibson has
a reputation for being multi-talented, able to apply herself to a
vast array of different challenges with her habitual composure.
Though she first worked as a nursing administrator, she has also
worked as an executive director and this has allowed her to develop a
whole range of skills, creating innovative solutions to whatever
problematic administrative difficulty has come her way. Both of these
roles required very different things from Glenda
Gibson, but
she was able to adapt herself to these circumstances with ease.
Whereas
being a nursing administrator often required interacting with
patients and those members of the population who needed to be treated
with compassion and tact, being an executive director required a more
restrained type of authority which Glenda
Gibson was
easily able to provide. She worked as an executive director at the
Brazos Management Group, where she made a reputation for herself in
her deftness within the realm of financial forecasting and strategic
planning. This role required less interaction with people outside the
team of employees and considerable skill at directing larger groups
of people to perform complex tasks. Glenda
Gibson really
shone in this area, knowing intuitively what tasks to set what people
and exactly what she could expect from her team. The team that she
constructed during her time at Brazos Management Group was composed
of only the best and most dedicated employees and they often solved
problems in half the time that they has been set, continually
exceeding the expectations of those at the top. It was this ability
to get the best out of people which really brought Glenda
Gibson to
the attention of the company’s
investors and frequently garnered her praise and rewards. For Glenda
Gibson the
most important aspect of being a business administrator is a
willingness to adapt yourself to whatever challenges that the job
might present: a business administrator is nothing without the
willingness to change. Being in charge means being exposed to a whole
range of problems and issues in an intensely pressured situation, but
what has distinguished Glenda
Gibson is
her relaxed can-do attitude towards even the most oppressive of
issues, marking her as a truly multi-talented woman in the
professional sphere.
