In this episode of LifeSci Continuum, I’m thrilled to reconnect with Glenn Hanner as we dig into a critical challenge that many life science leaders face: the danger of tunnel vision when planning for an exit. Often, the excitement of an exit strategy can overshadow the need to establish a strong foundation and deliver on the promised value to customers. Glenn and I pull from our experiences to discuss how companies can balance long-term strategic goals with immediate customer-centric needs to avoid costly oversights.
Glenn and I explore how companies can get so fixated on the endgame that they neglect the foundational work necessary for sustainable growth, from quality assurance to customer satisfaction. Glenn shares examples from his career, illustrating how failing to invest in fundamentals can derail even the best-laid plans for an IPO or acquisition. This episode is a must-listen for life science professionals aiming to build lasting value, not just chase short-term wins.
