Building a Drug Development Core Team
Situation
The development of a new compound is executed by a global, cross-departmental, Drug Development Core Team. To ensure optimal cross-departmental collaboration and efficient decision-making, teams usually work in a so-called Core Team model.
For this client, a relatively small Biotech organization, the concept of working in a Core team model was not yet established. The lack of alignment and communication between the departments resulted in inefficiencies, unclear decision-making and potential delays.
Approach
I established clear roles and responsibilities for each Core Team member, provided structured communication channels, clear collaboration guidelines and a clear decision-making process.
I organized several workshops on how to improve communication, work accross cultures and to improve decision-making. I led the team through change to ensure that the new Core Team model was fully implemented as intended.
Outcome
The team established the new Core Team model and collaborated more efficiently.
