who will be the next 'associate'?
Update: Competition In Progress
TU's College of Business and Economics will kick off the fourth round of The Associate on Tuesday, Feb. 19 at 5 p.m. in Stephens Hall, Room 310.
This year's "Donald Trump" is John K. Tolmie, president and CEO of St. Joseph Medical Center. The winner of 'The Associate', TU's adaptation of NBC's The Apprentice, will gain the opportunity to work with Tolmie after graduating in May. Tolmie is the first leader representing the healthcare industry in the four-year history of the competition.
Under Tolmie's leadership, St. Joseph Medical Center, a member of Catholic Health Initiatives, is a 364-bed acute care facility with more than 1,000 medical staff and $350 million in net revenues, has formed a partnership with St. Agnes Health, developed Physician Enterprise Corporation to operate and grow physician strategy and launched a Cancer Institute, among more. He is a member of the American College of Healthcare Executives, American Hospital Association, Catholic Health Association of the U.S., Maryland Hospital Association, Upper Chesapeake Health System Board, Stella Maris Advisory Board, Greater Baltimore Committee President's Advisory Council and the College of Notre Dame of Maryland Board.
Throughout The Associate competition, participating local companies present cases to the student candidates, whose two teams compete. Each week one candidate from the losing project team is eliminated as Tolmie and others evaluate candidates.
