Essential Leadership Skills for Pharmaceutical Physicians: Having a Challenging Conversation to Create a Win-Win Situation

Friday 8 October 2021
10:00-13:00

Pharmaceutical physicians need to manage challenging conversations with a variety of stakeholders. These can be within their company such as senior management, team colleagues or marketing, and also outside such as with regulatory agencies. For example, they need to ensure that the right information is given and used to produce the summary of product characteristics for a drug that goes into every package. They need to work with a variety of medicine development team members to do this. This workshop will assist you in working with your stakeholders effectively in order to move you towards meeting your goals.

What to expect

The workshop will be very practical, with a number of personal and interactive exercises.

It will help you to:

  • explore how to be more assertive in challenging conversations and how to apply it in different situations;
  • deal with people who exhibit challenging behaviours in a group; and
  • create a winning situation to ensure that you move your projects forward more smoothly.

By the end of the workshop, you’ll be better able to:

  • handle a difficult situation as and when it arises;
  • prepare and deal with different challenging conversations; and
  • minimise difficult behaviours in a group meeting.

Who should attend?

This training is designed to be useful to all pharmaceutical physicians who are aspiring or established leaders.
