Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting our Emerging Markets Leaders here at Janssen South Africa. Their visit couldn't have been more perfectly timed, as it coincided with our second quarterly all-employee town hall meeting. It was a great opportunity for us to come together, share updates, and connect on our shared goals and Credo responsibilities. We took a moment to celebrate the incredible individuals that make up our team, warmly welcoming new colleagues, giving a shoutout to our remarkable movers and shakers, and recognising individuals who consistently demonstrate our core values. But the visit didn't stop there – our senior leaders had insightful meetings with key stakeholders, deepening our collaborations for a stronger future. They also took the time to connect personally with our dedicated employees, fostering relationships and fuelling a spirit of collaboration throughout the organization. Looking forward to connecting again in Q3! #Leadership #Healthcare #EmployeeEngagement
