Discover: Leading in Pharma: What We See Coaching Leaders Across the Industry
11:20 am - Tuesday 6th October 2026
Drawing on 251 coaching engagements with senior leaders across pharma and biotech, this session offers a view no single case study can: what leaders are working on across the industry, how those priorities differ from every other sector, and what that says about what it takes to succeed here.
Learn why influence has overtaken communication as the top development priority for pharma leaders – the only sector in our data where that ranking is reversed – and what leading without authority actually requires. Understand why five of pharma's ten most-needed development priorities are inner-game skills like executive presence, confidence, and self-awareness, what that reveals about the leaders in your organization, and why these capabilities don't respond to traditional training.
