The Stem

Nearly all Life Sciences companies are in the midst of "customer engagement transformations" aimed at re-wiring how they operate to respond to a changing environment. Yet, most are unsatisfied with their progress and most consider missing knowledge as a key hurdle they face. How this “talent gap” is managed will determine the winners and losers over the next several years. The Stem is a new breed of management consultancy. We enable Health companies to maximize their return on customer experience investments through a ‘networked consulting’ model that draws on the industry’s leading independent talent. We deliver expert teams sourced from our network of over 350+ consultants and configured to nimbly tackle the most difficult customer engagement challenges without sacrificing control or accountability. The difference lies in the model itself. Seasoned Independent Consultants: Traditional consultancies rely on a finite pool of in-house talent, and work is typically pitched by a partner and then delegated to junior staff. At The Stem, we curate teams averaging 15-20 years of experience. Deep and Broad Expertise: Unlike traditional agencies or consultancies which focus on a small number of disciplines, The Stem has over 20 distinct customer engagement disciplines in its network. Full Accountability: All teams are overseen by a Client Partner, responsible for ensuring project goals are met and clients are satisfied with consulting teams. Flexibility & Agility: Stem teams are curated from our network and matched to client needs. We operate as a single global network with no limitations internally to building optimal teams. Cost-Effectiveness: The Stem uses a virtual model supported by collaboration technologies and peer support. By limiting overhead we are able to compensate and attract senior talent, and deliver more cost-effectively than "traditional consultancies".
