5. How to define risk?
How to measure it?
How to manage it?
©KelvinStott2013
7. Get new products to market?
Meet customer needs?
Maximize sales/profit/value/ROI/… ?
Minimize/manage risk?
Maximize probability of success?
Optimize time, cost, quality?
Do the right projects, do them right?
Support the strategy?
Manage resources effectively?

8. Business & Shareholders
Maximize Actual Net Value Added (NPV or ROI)
Customers (Patients, Physicians, Regulators,
Payers & Providers)
Maximize Actual Net Health Benefit vs Cost
1. Business objective absolutely depends on customer
objective as key value driver (win-win)
2. Actual outcome ≠ Expected outcome
3. Potential difference is based on risk

15. Both risk and uncertainty are:
Based on the current lack of certainty in a potential
fact, event, outcome, or scenario, etc.
Defined by probabilities or probability distributions
Include upside and downside potential
Subjective: depend on who knows what
Key differences
Risk involves exposure to impact: consequences that
matter to a subject
Hence, risk is even more subjective, depends on how
much the consequences matter, to whom
©KelvinStott2013
16. Known unknowns
Potential facts, outcomes, scenarios that we are aware of,
but don’t yet know with any certainty
Based on stochastic processes and known probability laws
Unknown knowns
Certain facts that others know but we don’t
Based on information asymmetry or poor communication
Unknown unknowns
Potential facts, outcomes or scenarios that we are not yet
aware of, have not considered or encountered before
Rare and extreme events or outliers (“black swans”) in the
tails of a probability distribution
Often over-looked due to lack of experience/imagination

22. 4 simple options have the same expected value of $100:
Which is the “MOST RISKY” option?
1. Gain $100 (100% probability)
2. Gain $300 (75%) or lose $500 (25%)
3. Gain $500 (50%) or lose $300 (50%)
4. Gain $700 (25%) or lose $100 (75%)
13% of experts1 chose Option 1 as “most risky”
26% chose Option 2 based on potential loss only
26% chose Option 4 based on probability only
Only 35% chose correct Option 3 based on potential loss
and probability combined2
1. LinkedIn survey of over 800 professional risk managers, financial analysts and investors
2. Greatest risk according to all key risk metrics: expected loss ($150); downside risk vs EV ($200);
standard deviation ($400); mean absolute deviation vs EV ($400)

Increasing commercial risk (competition)
Regardless of strategy, overall risk is increasing with time

45. Pharma companies will need to
take more risk in the short term
– but manage it better, smarter –
in order to innovate, adapt and
survive in the long term
©KelvinStott2013
46. Risk is expected deviation from expected value,
based on uncertainty in all value drivers
Goal is to optimize risk-return profile of assets
according to stakeholder risk appetite
Continuous process of developing & evaluating
options to navigate risk-return landscape
Applies to all assets, at every level, every stage
Risk is critical for change & innovation, requires
great courage by individuals (i.e., you)
R&D is risk management: Manage the risks, the
objectives will take care of themselves
