/ Life at IQVIA — Post
Our expectation of managers is to support our talented people at each stage of the employee lifecycle. Discover five IQVIA programs that support them in doing that.
We have a unique value proposition in that all employees are empowered to explore their career possibilities and have multiple careers here, at IQVIA.
‘One IQVIA Multiple Careers’ is an ongoing initiative designed to facilitate upskilling, reskilling and internal movement in line with our employees’ interests, careers aspirations and IQVIA’s growth strategy.
We encourage all employees and managers to engage in continuous development and career conversations throughout the year. Our expectation from managers is to support our talented people at each stage of the employee lifecycle, empower them to do their best work, and prepare them for the future. This cultivates a collaborative environment where we work together to drive our career growth strategy.
To support this, we offer a wide variety of development programs, including both self-directed and live tutor-led webinars to ensure that future and emerging leaders have the knowledge, skills and tools to successfully shape their career.
Here are five leadership programs available at IQVIA:
1. Future Leader Program
Our Future Leader Program is geared towards individuals with high potential to become great leaders within our organization. It stands out for its innovative challenge, which encourages participants to rethink conventional methods and present their ideas to senior executives for sponsorship and investment.
Examples of sponsored projects include:
• An automated linguist quality feedback solution to ensure consistent quality from our 2,000+ linguists.
• Using natural language processing (NLP) and generative AI to transform insights into healthcare practices.
“This was by far the most beneficial leadership course that I have ever participated in,” said Kasey Griffin, Senior Director, Flexible Resourcing, R&DS, U.S. “It was a great use of my time. The content was relevant, and the simulation was fantastic. I left the meeting feeling reconnected to IQVIA and re-energized to lead my team.”
2. Emerging Leader Program
The Emerging Leader Program is designed for high-potential employees at the managerial level. It’s filled with training sessions to shape future leaders and offers mentorship opportunities from Future Leader Program alumni, creating a chain of leadership development within the organization.
3. New Manager Program
IQVIA’s New Manger Program was launched to support those who are new to managing people or experienced managers but new to IQVIA. It is a guided learning pathway designed to navigate available resources and prioritize tools, ensuring that managers feel supported and equipped to lead their talented team members.
4. Research & Development Solutions General Management Acceleration Program
The R&DS General Management Acceleration Program is ideal for a mid-career, individual contributor working in R&DS who is interested in becoming manager at some point in their career. This year-long program builds leadership capabilities through training, immersive sessions, project work, and mentoring.
5. Real World Solutions Job Shadowing Program
And lastly, the Real World Solutions Job Shadowing Program is a week-long program enabling participants to shadow a peer, helping them expand their internal network, learn about different business areas, identify alternative career opportunities, and increase their visibility within IQVIA.
At IQVIA, we truly believe you should have the opportunity to own your career, with support from managers who genuinely want to see you reach your full potential. Discover a career with greater purpose at IQVIA today. Search all jobs.
