EXCELLENCE IN LEADERSHIP CRITERIA
When we think of leadership, we often focus on upper-level management — CEOs, CFOs, and so forth. Your nominee may indeed be someone such as that. But excellent leadership skills can be found throughout a company’s organizational hierarchy and help that business achieve operational excellence, sometimes one process or department at a time. Your nominee may be a corporate officer who has demonstrated a strong vision to drive a company to greater commercial success; or it may the head of a Quality department that has successfully helped move a company out of a regulatory crisis. He or she may be appreciated as a strong mentor for those new to industrial biotechnology; a project manager who has guided his or her team toward a more efficient or timely project conclusion. Whose leadership this past 18 months have you especially appreciated, and why?
