Contact us at info1@VivoGroup.com for more information about offering this course in-house at your organization. MA Express ID#C-2017


Overview

In the life sciences, individual contributors are often promoted because of their knowledge and expertise. But their success as leaders depends directly on their ability to get things done through others. Becoming an effective manager in the life sciences can be challenging because it requires a new set of perspectives, skills, and responsibilities. This session will provide participants with the key tools they need to be more confident and productive in their organizations.


Attendees of this program will gain the key essential skills to effectively lead and manage in the life sciences. Tailored to the specific needs of biotech, pharmaceutical, and medical device organizations, this workshop provides participants with the know-how to avoid the most common mistakes made by managers, the capability to apply appropriate leadership styles in varied situations, and strategies for conveying difficult information about performance – honestly and proactively. The format of this course is highly interactive with a focus on practical techniques and applications in current roles.
