Collaboration is King! Ice Breaker
For today’s drug manufacturer, the idea of collaboration is one that should never leave the table. Successful organizations will ensure that their internal departments are working hand-in-hand with one another. And, even more successful companies know that there could be huge benefits to reap by collaborating with others across the healthcare ecosystem. To instill this idea of collaborating for success, we are going to play a fun little ice-breaker game.
