Leadership in the Pharmaceutical Industry focuses on leadership in pharmaceutical organisations at three levels: individual, team, and organisational. At the individual level, it covers leadership basics, theories, types of leaders, differences between leaders and managers, leadership traits and skills, and systems thinking. At the team level, it explores leadership styles, the leader’s interaction with the team, and employee motivation, including the use of intrinsic motivational factors. At the organisational level, it examines the leader’s role in creating and maintaining organisational culture, forming and implementing organisational strategy, and managing organisational changes.

The book also addresses the specifics of the pharmaceutical industry, including the types and characteristics of innovations and the ethics of leader behaviour, emphasising the importance of ethical leadership. Notably, leadership issues are illustrated with practical cases featuring prominent leaders such as Paul Janssen, Daniel Vasella, Charles Walgreen III, John C. Martin, Roy Vagelos, Albert Bourla, Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw, and Filya Zhebrovska. These leaders were or are involved in creating, manufacturing, and providing patients with pharmaceutical products.

The book is designed to benefit readers from various business sectors, with the primary audience being academics, students, and individuals interested in leadership in the pharmaceutical industry.
