The biotech industry stands out in terms of potential. It is a world peopled with highly trained scientific talent who deserve business platforms that adequately support and leverage this intelligence. It is an industry that has yet to fully show the market its investment value and its contribution to our future quality of life.

Therefore the mission of Life Science Leaders is to help life science companies attain the best leadership and direction through optimal hires and developing the best communications and support networks inside the company for each hire.

This sets us apart from the traditional search firm. Life Science Leaders provides a value-added search service that includes introductions and networking prior to and during the search. We then intelligently select the best that the market has to offer. Also, upon completing the search Life Science Leaders adds its unique follow on “settling in” coaching to give the new leader the best start possible.

For many years I worked with large intensively consulted corporations. I watched them come in, spend time disrupting business, write a report, get paid and then get ignored. Money ran down the drain. My subsequent career as a consultant in “Big 6” accounting taught me that advice from my own experience actually helped my clients more than the reports and strategies.

While my current deliverable, the leader for your company, is much more dynamic and valuable than the strategies and opinions I delivered in the past, I still try to add from what I know from my network and experience. Hence Proactive Networking and Follow on Coaching.

I learned long ago that searches are like life insurance. The value to you is not only when it is done, but also how well you sleep during the process. While our generally recognized report card is the person we bring to you, we all acknowledge this involves an element of luck; the right person can come from anywhere at any time. However, the prepared mind where opportunity can knock - ie, a well thought out search strategy and process – is not luck at all, but totally in our hands.

The Life Science Leaders process is carefully constructed to keep you informed at all times, to demonstrate early on that we will deliver for you and to garner your input in the most positive way. We feel we have provided a great value if you know throughout the process that we are progressing, we will deliver, that you will be heard and your expectations will be satisfied.

Another distinguisher for Life Science Leaders is how we do the job. We require proof of a candidate’s performance. And we also dig deep in the interview and collateral conversations to really discern the candidate’s basic nature…. will this person catch the company vision and makes it shine? …will she or he communicate with key players naturally and effectively?

We aim for a diverse management team that can work together with the affinity of twins. We like to see leadership that consistently represents success to the organization; gaining recognition as great achievers for doing something that is as natural and effortless to them as breathing.

When people do what comes naturally to them, you have more confidence that they will continue such performance. When they internally share the company vision, they are naturally motivated in the direction that the company needs to go.

This is a platform for a true win/win track record; hiring criteria based on what the company really requires, knowing the best that the current market will offer as a result of incorporating Proactive Networking, carrying out a search process that truly engages the best confidence and contributions from the client and search firm, and choosing the candidate that has the best demonstrated performance and natural fit.

This is the search we would like to carry out for you.
