What does it actually take to walk into a company in crisis and rebuild it from the ground up?
In this episode of Leading From the Front, Dr. Gary McGrath sits down with Jeanne Taylor Hecht, CEO and Chairwoman of Lexitas, a full service contract research organization supporting pharmaceutical, biotech, and med tech companies in ophthalmic drug development. Jeanne took over as CEO after serving as Executive Chairwoman of the board, inheriting a company with broken trust, unclear values, and significant turnover.
She breaks down how she stabilized the organization before scaling it, why culture has to be built before strategy can work, and what leaders get wrong when they tolerate behavior that undermines the people around them.
If you lead a team through transition, this episode will give you a clearer picture of what it takes to build something that lasts.
