Antoinette Yazbeck - Al Ain, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates
Ms. Antoinette Yazbeck enrolled in California National University for Advanced Studies' MBA program with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the American University of Beirut. She graduated from CNU Magna Cum Laude with a 3.79 GPA. She is employed at the Twan Hospital in the UAE as an In-Service Educator.
Antoinette's goal was to develop skills that would enable her to become a more effective manager and to improve the quality of care. As part of her graduation requirements, she researched and wrote a thesis on the topic "A Study of Self-Valued Rewards by Employees and their Perceptions of its Effect on Job Performance, Satisfaction, and Retention."
She extended her studies in her thesis to cover practical steps in dealing with increase in productivity, award and appreciation systems, and better customer service. Antoinette believes she has not only acquired a broader skill set from her studies but has also benefited from CNU's curriculum which gave her a clear approach on how the courses are arranged and the highly professional faculty who gave these courses.
"The CNU program has definitely given me a proper scientific base that will help me in future endeavors and progress in my work. My supervisors are very pleased with my proposals and have confidence that I will pursue the right process and measures to address such issues."
