Read more about this successful client engagement » Global Pharmaceutical FirmA global pharmaceutical firm looked to Wharton Executive Education for a strategic consultation on the ways it had implemented patient-centered care. Wharton evaluated the firm’s successes, analyzed the link between financial performance and operations, and convened a group of experts from related industries to present to the firm’s top management.
