Our Ethos in Action – Decision-Making Framework Toolkit
IFPMA has developed a Five-Phase Decision-Making Framework, grounded in the IFPMA Ethos or value system, to help companies make decisions that balance business objectives and ethical considerations to meet patient needs and the expectations of the medical community, regulators, and society.
The Decision-Making Framework Toolkit provides a suite of customizable materials to support organizations in putting the IFPMA ethical foundation into action.
This Toolkit has four parts:
- The Decision-Making Framework: a principles-based, 5-step decision-making approach
- A comprehensive background guide to the Decision-Making Framework
- A customizable presentation deck
- An accompanying guide to support business leaders
