This segment also handles the formulation, development and manufacturing for parenteral dose forms, including vials and prefilled syringes. Activist Commentary: Elliott is a very successful and astute activist investor, particularly in the technology sector. While as an activist Elliott will do whatever it feels is necessary to enhance shareholder value, in the past the firm has made significant use of the strategy of offering to acquire its portfolio companies as the best catalyst to enhance shareholder value. Like Catalent, Syneos is an outsourced pharma solutions company: It outsources R&D for pharmaceutical companies, whereas Catalent outsources manufacturing. If this does turn from a strategic review to an operational review, there is no guarantee that he keeps his job.

Women are more likely to be promoted to top jobs when times are tough. Research shows that women and people of color are more likely to be promoted to top jobs when companies are going through tough times, or when a company is most likely to fail. CNN is certainly going through tough times. His tenure at the Warner Bros. Discovery-owned CNN was a rough run, defined by layoffs, a shrinking audience, and an increasingly angry newsroom. Two of the three editorial leads put in charge of the network on Wednesday in the interim are women.
