One-day management networking forum brings together senior laboratory professionals on developing strategic, financial and operational expertise for today's laboratory
Managers with direct or indirect responsibility for laboratory operations improvement have few occasions to openly discuss topics which deal with the business side of running a laboratory.
This one day management forum will offer the opportunity to do just this.
Hear from, and meet with, your peers to discuss selected business approaches taken in the laboratory, and participate in discussions on a range of potential collaborative laboratory improvement topics.
The following organisations will be presenting on the day: Agilent Technologies, Central Science Laboratory (UK), GE Healthcare, and United Utilities.
Topics under discussion will include how the laboratory director/manager exceeds the fiscal, operational and competitive productivity expectations of stakeholders, maintains competitive costs while continuing to offer scientific and technical excellence, measures the tangible contributed value of the lab to the organisation, understands and delivers on the laboratory informatics investment, and competes in a highly regulated external environment.
In addition: what business tools and training must lab managers have to be successful?, will mentoring be enough considering that lab management is often unique in an organisation, and few individuals are specifically trained for the role?.
Labformatics will be hosting this one day forum at the Mere Golf and Country Club, Knutsford, Cheshire, UK, starting at 10.00am on Wednesday 23 November 2005.
