Lead Scientists & Sustain the Reasearch Organization
Innovative and scientific companies face a unique dilemma: the
tyranny of success.
For example, the typical time to bring a drug to market is over
10 years, from initial conception through candidate screening and
then on to testing and FDA decision. The economics of the situation
dictate that a biotech or pharmaceutical company must continually
keep new drugs in the pipeline, as well as maintain a success rate
of around 3 blockbuster drugs a year.
How can these successful companies maintain their strength and
innovative edge in the face of changing markets, technologies, politics,
and consumer demands? Too often a period of high innovation is followed
by one of stagnation and inertia, which companies today can’t
afford.
Moravec and Associates draw on richly experienced consulting and
senior academic resources to implement:
- Cultures required to support innovation and discovery
- Methods of forecasting technology change and predicting customer
needs
- Information systems and processes that accelerate research
- Tactics for dealing with internal politics and overcoming resistance
to change
- Management strategies for delivering maximum efficiency and
effectiveness
- Support and enhancement of valued competencies
- Links between structure, policies, recognition, and an overarching
vision of the future

followed by inertia
- Meet changing market needs ahead of the competition
- Deliver outstanding results quarter by quarter, locally and
globally
- Renew leadership, vision, and strategic focus
- Innovate effectively now and in the future
- Retain leading scientists and researchers, energized by continuing
