Top Talent

At the most recent edition of the Pharma Manufacturing World Summit held May 15-16, 2023, in Boston, we spoke with Michael Kamarck, a senior industry executive, and Pascal Bécotte, the Managing Director of Russell Reynolds Associates, about the most serious challenge threatening to bottleneck the otherwise very bright future of medicine. For a number of reasons explored in both this interview and in this recent blog post, there are not enough qualified people to fill all the top jobs that need to be done, and this is not something that is going to be fixed in a day or even a few years without the industry working together in a decisive and unprecedented way to collectively develop its rising Top Talent in the technical operations space into the senior leaders that Small Molecule, Large Molecule, and especially the emerging Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products sectors cannot do without.
