Our Culture & Values

At Nycomed, we take pride in an international culture that emphasizes flat hierarchies, flexible teams and consensus-building.

Despite our rapid growth in recent years, many employees say it still feels like a small company where individuals can make a difference.

We are proactive in ensuring that our company values are widely understood and implemented. These four values have played an invaluable role in the success and growth of Nycomed:

Empathy is essential in any human interaction. Only by listening to and understanding the other person’s point of view can common ground be found. Empathy is crucial to understanding our patients and developing innovative medicines to meet their needs.

Trust is an indispensable basis for everything we do with internal colleagues and external partners. Trust is an important reason why Nycomed has become the preferred partner for over 100 companies in R&D, marketing and manufacturing.

Courage means that our employees act quickly on their own judgement, take calculated risks and fight for their ideas – even if unpopular. At the same time, it also means the ability to face reality and re-evaluate goals.

Motivation is the spark that drives creativity and performance, and the basis for a culture built on empowerment and self discipline. Nycomed enhances that motivation by taking a flexible attitude toward work from home, depending on individual circumstances, job requirements and local regulations.
