Mission

The mission of the Stevens Alumni Pharmaceutical Club is to help enhance the careers and knowledge of its members in the pharmaceutical and related industries. Every quarter, SAPC holds its dinner meeting, complete with a presentation by invited guest speakers. Members have the opportunity to meet others in the pharmaceutical industry and learn more about diverse, pertinent subjects. Besides fostering good relations among members, these get-togethers provide a vital forum for the exchange of ideas. Meetings will be held from September through June, usually on Wednesday nights.

Reinvent Your Career for the New Pharma!

It’s no secret that the pharmaceutical industry is undergoing significant changes. Almost daily reports of downsizing, outsourcing, and eroding profit margins are commonplace. Join your fellow alumni to hear from two experts on these subjects so you can decide what you need to learn and what you should do to protect your career.

Michael R. Steiner, CFP®, CPA, Pharmaceutical Executive Services Group Leader from RegentAtlantic Capital, will review the recently released white paper on the pharmaceutical industry and give an update on the state of the industry, focusing on how to take advantage of the opportunities arising out the industry’s evolution. Barbara White, MSOD, from CPA Transformation Coaching & Consulting LLC will discuss self assessment as a key tool for positioning yourself for the industry changes and will provide tips, tools, and insights to get you started on the road to reinvention.

All attendees should read The Continuing Evolution of the Pharmaceutical Industry: Career Challenges and Opportunities, which can be downloaded for free at www.pharmawealthmanager.com prior to the meeting. Or, send an email to paper@pharmawealthmanager.com to request a hard copy of the report.

Click HERE for additional information and to sign up to attend. You owe it to yourself to stay ahead of the inevitable changes taking place!

Guests are welcome!
