How to destroy field medical

























Jeez - just saw this thread. As a former employee, I am blown away at how bad things must have become to see almost 60K views on this topic. I hope things turn around but sounds like it is a big uphill climb to get there.
 
































AC has potential with the right coaching. Her heart is in the right place but room to improve the way she empowers her people and trusting that we are all capable (more than capable) in doing our jobs. The problem is -who is going to coach her with the Head being spread so thin across so many teams it isnt realistic. Some managers are terrible some with potential and others that are good and really fight for their people but without the right coaching and development those with potential will never grow and will eventually become intolerable. It's not just us MSLs that need coaching it's some of these FDs and MEDs who really need to coaching!

No, she does not.

A self-focused sociopath who by their nature *dislike* other people and do not care about them simply cannot be coached.
 




AC is a great individual contributor but not a leader. Not humble enough to let anyone coach her, bullies her direct reports. Just do an anonymous survey of her direct reports and the truth will come out.

Hey,

sorry to say but you're 99% right...almost.

Firstly, you're spot on that AC is not a leader (not even a half-decent manager, nope)... wut why do you think she is a great individual contributor? What have you seen that supports this point? What has she actually achieved at Genentech? What contribution has she made even individually? She is a net-minus in every way.

Whoever is letting this disaster of a sociopath (i.e. AC) remain to destroy whatever is the remaining morale on her team is just destroying the Enterprise Value of Roche/Genentech. My wife works as an analyst at a Hedge Fund - they should short Roche stock exclusively due to AC being here.
 




30 mins into this Vegas field medical meetings someone please shoot me in the foot this would be more bearable. Why won't Brian stop talking?

This is going to be a long ass two days!
