EMSA OF THE FUTURE

Quote












An idea.. why don't you ask your boss if you can take a leadership role in putting together a agenda for a staff meeting which will facilate communications and best practices amoungst the team? Ask your peers for input. No manager would say no to this... and they might learn something from the experience based on feedback from the team..

do not have the agenda be just answers from the boss... but lead a discussion on SOPs/process and key issues that support dept objectives that the team thinks need resolution... good luck

This is an open forum and I'm sure this response was posted with the best of intentions, but it misses the point. In many cases and areas of EMSA we're talking about non-MD Director level management being let down by SENIOR MD management within EMSA. These folks have already demonstrated leasdership, played an integral role developing SOPs and process and demonstrate best practices on a daily basis.

Its the doctors arrogance, attitude and churn that is the problem. SENIOR EMSA MD management has trouble articulating the value of EMSA to senior management within USHH and Global.

As you can see, it's a little bit more involved than sitting around and telling feel good stories to each other. If that's all it takes, QCS would have been gone a long time ago. Obviously Senior sales mamagement doesn't have guts either.
 






so has EMSA headcount increased or decreased over the last several years.. an increase suggests that EMSA Dr management is selling the dept mission and outcomes.. if the headcount has decreased. Just don't get what you mean about support of EMSA management... management style is one aspect but support for the dept mission with headcount is another

Overall headcount decreased, because of loss of CDP and ORM. Murray's group (which people on here seem to be referring to interchangably with EMSA) seems to be increasing, however.
 






the emsa aa non physican group lead by murray and now by shuck is a broken down just going thru the motion of day to day grunt. this team has been poorly managed and preception is that there output is of low value and quality. another wasted company resource.

Except to the marketing teams that know the value, understand the return and fund.

If the marketing teams don't know the value, understand the return and still fund, then our marketing teams are horrid.
 






Such incompetence and all this bull talk about changes. You got Drs. Keane, Schumck and Murray collecting their fact checks and treating their non physician colleagues as crap. And no one is holding them accountable.

Depends on what area of EMSA you look at. It seems that those people who go through business plan and profit plan are held accountable by the funding stakeholders ie marketing teams to do what is planned and funded. Those in EMSA that are not funded on a yearly basis by the marketing team and have poorly defined job descriptions, like the medical directors, have less accountability. But as someone said earlier there are EMSA rules for MDs and regular rules for everyone else.
 






Lots of jealousy and envy from all those without medical degrees.
The facts are that we the docs know and understand medicine and you the non MDs do not. So show some respect.
We have license from the medical boards to practice and therefore, the company recognizes this and treats us special. We came to Merck with the understanding that we have lot to offer and bring credibility to Merck with our peers.
 






What?? the true colors come out! The comment that " the company treats us special" is concerning...because "you know medicine".???. sorry pal there are alot of folks in the company that know medicine and marketing pharmaceuticals and can make decisions to futher the business. You certainly have a contribution based on your perspective and experience but you solely do not and cannot make business decisions based on your knowledge of medicine... you fail to recognize that you need others to help you to be successful in this company and other perspectives matter.

What you fail to recognize, "respectfully'' is that all employees should be treated with dignity and respect and NO one is better or more special than anyone else.. by the way who is the company??? who are they?? who told you were special and suggested that you did not need to respect others and they should respect you? If you were told this when you joined or someone told you you were better than everyone else... you need to reconsider this myth in your mind. Why don't you poll those who work for you? Ask them if they respect you? I trust that they do not and therefore will not listen to you because YOU do not respect them.

You seem to fail to recognize the importance of this value and behave consistently in a way that helps others to respect you... you need to give respect to others in order to receive it. This is not an academic center with chairs and residents and medical students.. it is a business where teamwork and respect for ALL others ( even the folks who empty your trash) is expected. This is how Merck achieves excellence.. everyone contributes and everyone should and will be recognized and feel respected for their contribution. this is what makes Merck great. If you do not behave this way.. YOU will not be respected or be successful in this enviroment.. What would your true friends say to you if you told them that you should be respected because of your knowledge?... knowledge is nothing without respect from others, that is what they would say. By the way... most doctors who practice medicine respect people in business not degrees... if they have to ask you what your degree is and where you got it from to have what you call credibility... you are really missing it. Many marketng folks and non MDs have great relationships with our customers and great insights to medicine... do not think for a second that you are solely the one with your collleagues that brings credibility to Merck because you have a medical degree. If you think this way.. you do not have respect for others and deserve not to be respected or be sucessful at this company.

You are a complete and utter tool. Go pound sand up your ass, you pompous jerk-off.
 












AA and EMSA departments are really a screwed up place.No one is charge, people come as go as they like, Murray, Keane and Schuck need to be fired for their incompetence, lack of leadership, and for zero accountability to Merck. What a waste of talent and resources.
