EVENTS

Scope and Objectives:

They say that ‘no organization outperforms its top team’. That principle is at the heart of the project described here where a top team learns new ways of working and leading in order to succeed in a challenging competitive situation.

Endo is a global specialty pharmaceutical company and this is the story of the leadership team of its Specialty Branded Division. Patrick Barry, the incoming Head of the unit, knew the value of effective leadership and wanted his whole team to benefit from it, build it for themselves and then share it with the wider organization. Patrick’s brand of leadership is involving, supportive and outcome-focused. Could he bring a soft style to the team and deliver hard results? This is the story of how Patrick, a committed team of leaders, and LIW in partnership achieved just that.

The strength of the partnership meant that the work that LIW and Endo did over 18 months could challenge some L&D norms and seek to get extraordinary results. Some of the L&D shifts that they explored were:

• From ‘learning to do’ to ‘doing to learn’
• From individual to intact team learning
• From a skills focus to a performance focus
• From a fixed learning path to agile development

Endo and LIW were granted the Gold Award in the EFMD Excellence in Practice Award 2019 in the ‘Executive Development’ category.

In this session, Endo and LIW will be sharing their success stories and interesting challenges they came across.
