Insightful panel discussion at the #TicketToRideNordics event! It is crucial for the biotech industry to not only focus on aggressive growth but also ensure that the knowledge transfer is effective within the organization. Building strong teams with the right expertise and mindset is the foundation of sustainable success. Kudos to Peter Alfvegren at Anchor Management Consulting for highlighting the importance of a receptive organizational culture.

Another week, another group of meetings. This time I was back in the CEE region getting together with our colleagues in Prague, Warsaw and Budapest. I’m really happy that with my position of South East Europe head I got a chance to cooperate again with the teams from the region I used to lead. Main focus was put on changes that occurred in the past two years that reflected on our ways of working & our strategies on the markets. We used this opportunity to jump into meaningful discussions, where we got to celebrate our recent achievements, dissected our challenges, and our plans. It is important to mention that CEE is a key #OTC and #Sudocrem market. Collectively we explored innovative strategies aimed at serving our patients with even greater care and efficiency. We dove deep into brainstorming sessions about the further implementation of our Pivot to growth strategy, exchanging insights, and nurturing a culture of continuous improvement. The diversity of perspectives and expertise brought to the table was great for fueling our journey towards excellence. I would like to give a big thanks to everyone that participated & facilitated our sessions.   #tevapharm #tevapharmaceuticals #weareteva #tevainternationalmeeting #internationalmeeting #cooperation #collaboration #PivotToGrowth #growth #strategy #management #seniorleadershipsummit #leadershipprinciples #seniorleadership #tevapharmaceuticalspolska #tevaotc #chc #otc

#OPENPichia is unleashing the yeast! A team of researchers led by Nico Callewaert and Katrien Claes at the VIB-UGent Center for Medical Biotechnology has succeeded in reconstructing one of the most important industrial expression systems for proteins in open access. 🔬 Pichia pastoris, a yeast used in the #biopharmaceutical industry is often used to produce molecular building blocks. Up until now, use of this technology was restricted by a paywall. Thanks to this research, a similar expression system can be offered at a much lower cost. Additionally, results of new research using this open access system can be shared more easily. Read the full story here: https://lnkd.in/eT5BdPkQ

Full disclosure, the first 15 mins of our lunch 🍴 were spent bemoaning 😭 the demise of our once proud football club, Manchester United❗ 🌟🚀 On that note, I'm pleased to introduce Philip Miller as the next professional on the #50lunches50leaders series 🌟🚀 Once we unpacked 🛅 those collective frustrations, it dawned on me that the start of the Red Devils slide, strangely coincided with Phil's own career going into overdrive & the fortunes of both parties have been going in different directions ↔ ever since!    Coming from a family of scientists ⚕, it was no surprise Phil found himself in a laboratory at GSK to start his career. The world 🌍 of molecular pharmacology/DMPK kept him engaged for 5 years (also gaining his Ph.D from the University of Leeds), but a desire to further challenge himself saw him enter the management consulting space. Jumping in the deep end, he entered Deallus as the 8th employee worldwide. Starting as a Research Consultant/Analyst, he exited 7 years later as Head of EMEA & LATAM. This conversion period of academia/science to commercial/business saw him experience dozens of projects with a huge range of 💊 pharma/biotech clients.   Astellas Pharma next secured his services & he remained in their EU business for the next 4 years. First in the UK 🇬🇧 as Senior Director, Corporate Strategy & Planning for EMEA & then Head of Sales & Marketing in Austria 🇦🇹. Clearly impressing the folks at HQ, the next step was bringing him & his family to Japan 🇯🇵 where he continued his work in Corporate & Portfolio Strategy, as Executive Director & then VP for a further 4 years. Wishing to remain in Japan 🌸, an expansion role opened at Novartis, where he has remained since mid 2023. As Head of Strategy & Growth, he oversees NPP, Launch Excellence, Business Development, Strategy & Governance & in this role, he encourages his team to focus on outcome over process. "If you're solving a complex problem 🤔, it's important to keep focussed on the outcome versus sticking with the original plan & unintentionally compromising on quality. It's about working through ambiguity, learning & adapting the process as you go, while keeping leaders close enough to the team & the subject matter to have a view 🔭 on whether initiatives are moving at the right pace & in the right direction.   It is in this environment where I've found teams produce their best work & can operate with confidence that the output is genuinely what matters rather than sticking to arbitrary deadlines.   The Japanese business environment can typically be quite process-minded & hierarchical. However, it's important to have the courage to say we don't know the answer yet & we don't know every step 👣 we will take. In my experience, this openness is usually appreciated, encourages constructive engagement & creates the best conditions for ⚡ success!" Thanks a lot Philip for joining me for a feed & wishing you (& Man U) great success for the year (season ⚽) ahead! 👍👍
