Join ISPE Nordic Affiliate for an engaging and practical Emerging Leaders workshop focused on building influence, credibility, and visibility in today’s matrix-driven pharmaceutical landscape. Through interactive dialogue and real-world frameworks, this session offers a valuable opportunity to connect with peers and strengthen the skills needed to lead beyond your title.
This workshop centers on navigating professional growth without formal authority or leadership responsibility. In complex organizations where cross-functional collaboration is key, many talented professionals find themselves needing to influence, communicate, and build trust across levels early in their careers. This session is designed to turn that challenge into opportunity — empowering you to lead with confidence, clarity, and credibility.
Led by Gergana Ruseva Nielsen, independent People & Culture Partner and Founder of GRN Consulting, the workshop combines practical tools with hands-on reflection to support your next stage of professional development.
We would like to thank Cowi for sponsoring the venue and supporting Emerging Leaders.
Whether you are currently exploring new opportunities, supporting colleagues through transitions, or simply looking to broaden your network, this evening offers space for open conversation, shared experience, and mutual support - all in a warm and festive setting.
