Event details
Companies lose millions of dollars and impair business outcomes when cross functional team members don't trust one another. A breakthrough methodology that busts myths and misperceptions among diverse functions can increase the industry's ability to be more effective in an ever restrictive environment where shorter timelines and more productive teams can increase market competitiveness and shareholder value.
Join us for this highly interactive meeting for best practices sharing, problem-solving, and networking to infuse trust into your corporate environment. National experts on conflict resolution and New York Times award-winning author of "Letters To My Younger Self” will dissect the myths and misperceptions that challenge collaboration and professional satisfaction. An alignment case study will be shared.
If you are pharmaceutical, biotechnology, or medical device leader in a startup or mature company, hear collaboration case studies from executives in research and non-clinical development, process development, commercial, and business development.
Attendees have the opportunity to be cited as contributing authors of a White Paper series on this topic.
