Pharma & HealthTech - EDITION Issue 2016

Dear Readers,

we are proud to present to you the first Healthcare Edition of our Complexity Management Journal. Over the years we have seen many executives surrender to the complexities of market requirements and regulators with shrugging shoulders. Sentences like “we just have to deal with this complexity” are often heard.

However, our research shows that the ability to reduce and manage the plethora of complexity drivers in a regulated environment is one of the key prerequisites for profitable growth in today’s competitive environment.

The three main articles in this edition shall encourage you to deal with complexity in a positive sense. There are some complexity drivers that you have to live with, but some complexities are actually manageable to the benefit of your company and to the disadvantage of your competitors. Many great leaders do not only solve complex issues, they seek them out.

Last but not least we would like to inform you about activities in our Complexity Management Academy. We established recently two more form groups: “Medical Technology” and “Process Industry”. Join us! We hope you will find this issue to be an interesting and informative read.
