052 - “All Work is Process” with Larry Mager

On this special episode of the podcast, I was joined by Larry Mager. As the 52nd episode, I wanted to thank Larry for being my first interview a little more than a year ago! 

On this episode, Larry and I discuss: 

- His experiences with Pharma and CRO clients vs. Medical Device 

- Predictive Quality Management across both medical device and pharma 

- Management Review and Compliance/Effectiveness/Efficiency 

- Prioritization, finding the right metrics and not measuring every process 

- His Books and what’s to come
