Why high performance cultures break down under pressure in bioscience organisations.

Full story: https://www.biosciencetoday.co.uk/why-high-performance-cultures-break-down-under-pressure-in-bioscience-organisations/

High performance in bioscience organisations rarely breaks down because people aren’t capable. It breaks down when scientific, regulatory and commercial pressure increases, but the systems supporting performance don’t evolve with it. What looks like a talent or ex*****on issue is often a design ...
