Companies in the pharmaceutical business are finding themselves in an environment of hitherto unknown market dynamics. At one end, financial markets and investors are demanding ever higher returns; at the other end, costs for developing and launching new products are exploding. Moreover, only a few products survive the testing phases, receive approval and have bestseller potential. The pressure to succeed, and the growing competition for customers, calls for more entrepreneurial thinking on top of expert knowledge in pharmaceuticals and the natural sciences. To meet these challenges, employees working in the pharmaceutical industry need management training to prepare themselves for entrepreneurial activities.
