Abstract

For a long time, pharmaceutical companies mostly laid stress on the training of specialists and technical aspects in their pursuit of Operational Excellence. This focus on methods and tools somewhat distracted from one of the most important success factors for a sustainable implementation: leadership. The importance of leadership has been notoriously underestimated. We will start this chapter with a short introduction to leadership, and then highlight the importance of leading the “right way” at all levels of an organization: from the OPEX specialists, over the OPEX leader in a plant and the plant leader himself to the responsible person for OPEX at a corporate level and the Top Management. We will build a leadership model helping us to put leading in an OPEX context, and will then discuss what kind of leadership is the most appropriate for a sustainable implementation of OPEX.
