Program Management

PhD Mentor
As a PhD mentor Dr. Coronel is very supportive to students that undergo the process of pursuing higher education while working full-time, and caring for a family.  As a former student she recalls the stress, lack of sleep and in some instances lack of family support.  Dr. Coronel learned from her experience and made it her goal to be the supportive person that the students can depend on for support and encouragement.  It is important that students are equipped with tools of success so that they have an understanding and can easily complete the needed task to reach each milestone.

As a full-time professor Dr. Coronel truly understands the need to keep the program rigorous so that students can handle any situation in the work force (we are competing globally).

Change and Innovation
Change and Innovation has become the norm in many businesses.  Those that do not re-visit their strategy are at risk against those that are consistently improving their strategy, and thriving to become industry leaders.  As innovators we continue to pursue the unknown, and prepare to make mistakes along the way.  If mistakes are made we learn, and continue to move forward.
