Leading Across Silos
13 November 2024, 9am GMT (UK time), online meeting.
High Performing Life Science OrganisationsEvery life science organisation that is developing products, commercial assets or high value services, is a complex, multi-discipline environment that needs to work cross-functionally. Yet as our companies grow, new people and functions are added; cross company collaboration may not be well sponsored at the most senior level; leaders of projects have to pull together a helpful but sometimes ‘not all of one mind’ group, without having direct authority.
Our free breakfast sessions enable you to air common challenges of working in our sector, and learn from others’ experiences. You are welcome to attend!
