Together, We Can Make a Difference
Every human life is precious and is a gift to this world. As a life science industry, we have the opportunity to save lives and improve the quality of life for the global community in which we live, including:
The born and unborn
Young and old
All races, all faiths, all ethnicities
Every person…every human life
The life science industry recognizes there is no room for partiality, and everything we do has to be safe, effective and right - every time. Learn more and become involved!
Join us in the Pathway Mission:
Pathway Chief Quality Officer Team
Tackling Global Challenges!
The Pathway Chief Quality Officer Team is acutely aware of the ability each member has to shape our industry, improve how we operate and affect global change. As a Team-in-Action, the Chief Quality Officers sponsor initaitives that strengthen our ability to innovate and be right-first-time for the ultimate success of patients who are counting on your life saving and life improving products.
Imagine: Check the time on your computer, your phone, your clock. Someone, somewhere in the world is in a doctor’s office right now and just got the most devastating news that all of us hope we will never hear. They have 2 months to live, or their son or daughter has a debilitating disease, or “this is the most aggressive form of the disease”, or “we have never seen this before”.
Their reaction? Their first thought is, “there has to be a cure”, and “Please tell me there is a treatment for this, and that there is hope.”
Where can they find Hope? In YOU. You are their hope. What you do every day to innovate, anticipate, react, predict, recognize, think about, and perhaps most importantly…to care.
The initiatives sponsored by the Chief Quality Officers are aimed at creating quality breakthrough outcomes for the entire industry. It is time to break the cycle of failure, increase the reliability of our products and provide assurance of product availability. When product, process and systems quality is owned by every employee, in every function and at every level, there is nothing that can stop us!
Here are just a few initiatives that accelerate quality excellence:
Upskilling Employees for Speed of Innovation
Are you Ready?
At Pathway, we know predictive operations require digitalization that is integrated across end-to-end operations, and extends to external partners. Innovative technology has finally caught up, but before we move to artificial intelligence, we must increase our cognitive capabilities and human skills.
According to McKinsey’s “The State of Organizations 2023” report:
Only 5% of respondents say their organizations already have the capabilities they need
39% of respondents say they are planning to leave their jobs in the next 3-6 months
Only 25% of respondents say their leaders are engaged, are passionate, and inspire employees
The Answer? Pathway has created a multi-pronged approach to upskill all levels of employees, arm universities with unprecedented industry education and support, and build a pipeline of pre-qualified student new-hires. —> And everything we do for students and universities is FREE!
Today’s employees are craving development, and want to learn “why”…not just “what”. Our industry experts are passionate about connecting concepts across the total product life cycle, explaining how scientific decisions impact the business (and vice versa), and enabling learners to co-own product, business and patient success. We have created learning paths for industry professionals that include certifications, certificates of completion and badges, including:
You Have so Much to Offer
Consider the opportunity you have to change a life forever!
