When you are getting started in your career it is easy to compare yourself to others — to your classmates, your peers, or your colleagues. Don’t! Remember to run your own race at your own pace.
As part of my series about the “Social Impact Heroes”, I had the pleasure of interviewing Caroline Roan, Vice President of Global Health and Patient Access at Pfizer Inc. and is President of The Pfizer Foundation.
Caroline oversees Pfizer’s Global Health and Patient Access (GH&PA) function, from stakeholder engagement and reporting, to the design of social investment strategies. During her tenure, Pfizer has refined its GH&PA strategy to better support the company’s evolving business priorities. The resulting GH&PA portfolio is a coordinated approach to strategic philanthropy and responsible investment which invests the full scope of the company’s resources to broaden access to medicines and strengthen health care delivery for underserved people around the world. She oversees a team based in New York, Switzerland and Kenya.
