On the road again

June 24, 2009  /  Stewart McCure

I've just noticed that of late my posts have focused more on my comedy than my consultancy.

Given the state of the world economy I must say how nice it is to work in pharma, a sector that is proving to be better than recession-proof. Not only are my clients still launching products with the same regularity as ever but because of the GFC even more is riding on the success of those launches.

This week I'm in Zurich and Copenhagen working with separate clients who gave me identical briefs: -

This time we can't afford to not 'get it right the first time'*
Higher internal stakes are always welcome news for external consultants like me.

* Apologies for the mangling double-negative but that's essentially what each client said in the meeting
