Women in Pharma/Biotech.
If you're a woman in Pharma or Biotech feeling stuck, frustrated by slow career progress, and unsure of your next move—let’s be honest.
It’s time to rewrite YOUR story.
Does this sound familiar?
If so, you're not alone.
1.
You’ve built success and know you’re good at what you do, but feel unclear on what to do next.
2.
You know what you want but worry you aren't standing out or don't know how to best position yourself to get it.
3.
You’re feeling a lot of doubt, overthinking and perfectionist tendencies - you’re worried you’ll make the wrong choice.
4.
When you do ask for the promotion, project, or job move, you’ve been told no, not now, or maybe later.
5.
You’re scrolling LinkedIn looking for your dream job but you’re not finding it.
6.
You are confident in your technical skills but struggle with speaking up too much. You don’t want to sound dumb or make a mistake.
7.
When you apply, it’s crickets. You’re not getting offers. So you keep tinkering with your resume and taking online training to improve your marketability.
8.
You feel like something is missing but you don’t know what. You have a good job on paper so it feels like nothing will be good enough.

THIS IS WHAT I NEED
hey there!
I'm Melissa,
Your New Coach.
With 15 years in the Pharma/Biotech industry, I know how you feel, because I was there, too.
In my last corporate role, I led Talent & Development with AstraZeneca. I had a great job. I even had the role created for me (a strategy I teach my clients), but didn’t feel like it was “the one”. I felt like something was missing and I wanted to make a bigger impact.
I discovered how to get ahead, and I created a process to help other women in the industry be elevated to meaningful roles of influence. So I left the industry in 2020 to help women like you disrupt the industry norms and create the career you deserve, using my unique combination of experience and expertise specific to the Pharma/Biotech industry.
I know the insider paths to success and the real reasons you're not getting call backs, offers, or the recognition you deserve. I created The Right Move Protocol to fill a gap for women like us and I have helped countless women love your career again.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do i need a coach?
Have you ever played an instrument or sport? A coach sees you and what you want to achieve differently.
I help you improve what you're doing and can see the tweaks needed that you cannot. Plus, as an industry and career expert, I'll guide you to make the right decisions and be sure you're only focusing on the things that matter and stop wasting time.
What if I can’t make the coaching calls, or have a work trip or vacation planned?
There’s never going to be a “perfect” time to prioritize your growth—if you wait for it, it may never happen. That’s why I designed this program to be flexible for busy professionals like you.
All coaching calls are recorded and available within 24 hours on your private podcast feed and in the program portal. Plus, you can always ask questions in the community whenever it fits your schedule.
For personalized coaching, the Coaching Concierge gives you the flexibility to get my feedback at a time that works for you. Being busy isn’t a problem unless you let it be!
what level do I need to be at to join? is this for certain departments?
This program will help you be certain and confident in your career and know exactly how to make a career move or get a promotion.
The program works for every level and Department. This process has been used with Specialists to Vice Presidents and virtually every area of industry from bench to boardroom.
Why now?
Do you want to wait to have the career you deserve? This program teaches you the skills you can't learn anywhere else. The sooner you start learning them, the sooner you change the trajectory of your career (and even stop stalling your growth or being overlooked!)
Imagine knowing exactly what you want and how to navigate Pharma/Biotech to make work and advancement easier. Delaying joining is only prolonging the unhappiness you have right now in your career.
