COVID02Jan13 - Managing Teams through a Pandemic: Lessons Learned and Lasting Impacts

Description

Staff cuts. Furloughs. Realignments of roles and responsibilities. Pivoting to new SOPs and technologies. Remote work as the “new normal.” COVID-19 caused major disruptions in the clinical research workforce.

In this panel session, leadership from sites, sponsors, and CROs will share what they learned while navigating this unprecedented workforce shake-up. They’ll share changes that were thrust upon their teams, what worked, what didn’t – and most importantly, the potential lasting impacts the pandemic is likely to have on the workforce.
