In this compelling Risk Revolution episode, Valerie Mulholland chats with Barry Byrne, Head of Knowledge Management Strategy at Novartis and a former Irish military officer. Barry shares his journey from Lebanon’s conflict zones to global pharma, revealing how real-time knowledge sharing can save lives, not just on the battlefield but also in medicine. They explore the transformative power of AI, storytelling, and sense-making in regulated environments, and what pharma can learn from NASA, the military, and consulting giants—a must-listen for leaders driving cultural and knowledge change in high-stakes industries.
