The paths for professional development are described using past recipients of the Harvey A.K. Whitney Lecture Award as examples. Past recipients were able to improve their performance by accepting the help of others, including their families. Most of these individuals were guided by mentors who taught them how to think and supported their character. Their growth was enhanced through memberships in professional associations. As members of regional and national organizations, they were able to observe pharmacy practice outside their own communities. An attempt to grow professionally is in effect a search for excellence. One way that past recipients achieved excellence was by participating in continuing education. One of the most important factors contributing to their professional growth was their relationships with other people. Hospital pharmacists have been influenced by such persons as Harvey A.K. Whitney, Donald Francke, Donald Brodie, and Evlyn Gray Scott. Past recipients of the Harvey A.K. Whitney Lecture Award have exemplified professional growth.
以哈维·A·K·惠特尼讲座奖的往届获得者为例，阐述了职业发展的路径。往届获得者通过接受包括家人在内的他人帮助，得以提升自身表现。这些人中的大多数都有导师指导，导师教会他们如何思考并塑造他们的品格。通过加入专业协会，他们的成长得到了促进。作为地区和国家组织的成员，他们能够观察本社区以外的药学实践。职业成长的尝试实际上是对卓越的追求。往届获得者实现卓越的一种方式是参与继续教育。促成他们职业成长的最重要因素之一是他们与他人的关系。医院药剂师受到了哈维·A·K·惠特尼、唐纳德·弗兰克、唐纳德·布罗迪和伊夫林·格雷·斯科特等人的影响。哈维·A·K·惠特尼讲座奖的往届获得者堪称职业成长的典范。
