What We Will Cover

In this first session, of an ongoing series of seminars that Mannaz will be running for leaders operating within the Life Sciences sector.
We will be hosting a lively conversation about what it takes to execute strategy effectively within this ever-changing sector. Our focus will be on managing the inherent pace and complexity of working in life sciences.

More specifically, we will look at:

The role of trust within successful pharma and biotech organizations – How social capital can help us navigate highly complex environments in biopharma, building a more responsive and adaptive organization
Managing fast-paced change as a critical leadership skill – Creating an environment where creativity drives high value-adding transformation, managing the human barriers to organizational change in contexts of great uncertainty
The role of integrated leadership in product development projects – What it takes to successfully manage portfolios of drug, device, diagnostic, digital, and combination programs and projects throughout the lifecycle (including how this sector compares to others in PM effectiveness)
