Leaders as innovators during and after the pandemic
Session Date: 4 May 2021
A Leaders In Learning Roundtable Event
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the healthcare industry will never look the same again. The pandemic has forged accelerated collaboration and repurposed whole healthcare ecosystems towards managing infectious diseases. The rapid convergence of technology, digitalization, machine learning, and 3D modeling are shaping a new patient experience.
Equally, the pandemic has fueled a new dialogue between science and society, highlighting that scientific authority is not a universally held value. How can healthcare organizations pivot rapidly to new challenges whilst delivering better care for individuals and more value to society? What new technological developments are going to transform and disrupt the sector? And what kind of resilient leadership does healthcare require for the future?
Learn from experts at the world’s leading global pharmaceutical and healthcare companies on how they are catalyzing the future as we discuss the role of healthcare leaders in:
- The re-examination of purpose in healthcare organizations
- Public acceptance and dialogue around science
- Next-generation healthcare business models
- Creating value through future technologies: AI, IoT, Smart Cities and genome editing
- Life beyond the pandemic and our responsibility as leaders
