Life science projects like pharmaceuticals take an average 12 years, billions of £ and only one in 250 drugs successfully reach the market. There is enormous waste in the process, yet the industry does not make use of the mountains of project data to gain insights to improve project performance.

There are calls from the Pharma Project Management profession to consider setting up a Pharmaceuticals Data Trust to provide the “big data” to gain new insights to the success factors, improve decision making, automate repetition, and deliver transformation leading to cost reduction, less waste, increased certainty of delivery, value generation, enhanced productivity, and shareholder value.

To drive the change required against the status quo is ambitious; to overcome the inertia, give direction to ensure the changes are genuinely for the better, and garner an industry led approach around a common purpose. We need to work together to develop the vision, roadmaps and provide thought leadership for project data analytics as an industry.

Sophie Newbould, (LinkedIn profile) lead advisor and negotiator on data, digital & technology (DDaT) projects for Government and regulated markets for the legal profession and large organisations such as HM Government, will provide the PIPMG attendees with a practical overview of how to approach gathering requirements that enable the capability transformation that the project management professions is very much looking to adopt.

In simple terms, an ally is someone who stands up for the equitable and fair treatment of someone who is different from them.

Anyone can be an ally for a marginalized or vulnerable group; it involves actively listening and learning about others’ experiences, as well as taking action to end discrimination. Allyship hinges on embracing a learning mindset and a willingness to question your assumptions, evolve your thinking, and owning your mistakes.

In this webinar, Christa will explore the relationship between inclusion and belonging, reflecting on dimensions of diversity that have shaped our personal access to opportunity.

Christa will investigate the concepts of power and privilege through a relational lens, identifying concrete steps we can take to interrupt bias and address injustice.

Lastly, she’ll delve into real-life scenarios involving micro-aggressions and discrimination, brainstorming ways that allies can take action.

Key topics covered:

• Define key terminology related to allyship
• Make a connection between belonging, engagement, and productivity
• Articulate what it means to act as an ally to a marginalized group
• Explain how bystander behavior contributes to bias and exclusion
• Identify concrete actions that allies can take in addressing bias and discrimination
• Brainstorm inclusive actions an ally could take in real-life scenarios
