Change and Transformation
Press Releases & Newsflow
Patients want to be partners in bringing about better research and better treatments. Companies can engage patients in numerous ways to be sure their needs are considered and their preferences understood. That input can lead to faster recruitment, less attrition, and more expedient clinical trials. These conversations also build trust in the company - a key to long term success, in market.
Patient Stories

Create engaging video content that explains who is impacted by a disease, and what actions you are taking to make a difference in these patients' lives. Patient and caregiver stories are powerful tools for peer-to-peer learning and behavior change. Sharing these stories can also increase empathy and learning for employees, physicians and care teams.

Change isn't easy. Good change plans - whether focused on the external environment, or the way teams work internally - need to account for how people think and feel as well as what new skills and behaviors are required. Making change happen (and making it stick!) requires consistent communication, working with allies, and ensuring people see progress to remain committed.
