Mission

Fang Zhou founded biopm, llc with the conviction that organizations and individuals can uncover their own growth potential and achieve greater success. biopm is here to help.

In his various roles as a scientist, manager, and consultant in the life sciences industry, Fang observed many organizations struggling to improve business results and stay competitive despite possessing highly skilled technical professionals.

One of the reasons for the discrepancy is a lack of understanding of knowledge work involved in today’s organizations, how knowledge workers produce results, and what factors impact their productivity.  Efforts based on the principles of manual work productivity, i.e. variants of Taylor’s Scientific Management, inevitably fail to improve knowledge worker productivity.  

Knowledge-worker productivity is the biggest of the 21st century management challenges.

Peter F. Drucker (1999)

Through his first-hand experience and personal journey, Fang developed insight and methodologies that help clients appreciate the unique challenges in knowledge work, gain new perspectives, identify improvement opportunities, and implement practical solutions.
