With this knowledge, Jacqueline and her team collaborated with an intelligence so?ware company to embark on a medical material data management project to segregate their device materials into medical and technical grades. The project outcomes allowed them to purge and/or discon?nued the prolifera?on of the use of technical grade chemistries. It was a big win for all who saw the vision and supported the journey to enhance pa?ent safety. Jacqueline Anim stands as a true luminary, pushing the boundaries of innova?on and leading the way at Ethicon, Inc., a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson. With an One of Jacqueline's most notable achievements is her groundbreaking work on biosafety materials. Her research has led to the development of innova?ve materials that can be used in surgical applica?ons, thus hemosta?c, cu?ng, and sealing ?ssue and blood vessels with no bleeding in a minimally invasive procedure. This breakthrough has simplified post-opera?ve care and improved pa?ent outcomes, making her a respected authority in the field. people in and obtain funding for execution.” A Perspec?ve of Perpetual Refinement From Jacqueline's perspec?ve, Ethicon is a fer?le ground for anything transforma?onal. It's a fearless company with daring leaders when it comes to groundbreaking innova?on for enhanced pa?ent care. And its Credo (The Northern Star) excels in this area. Jacqueline Anim's journey from a passionate chemical engineering student to a Senior Principal Materials Engineer at Ethicon, Inc. is a tribute to her innova?ve spirit and her commitment to improving the lives of others. Jacqueline's work con?nues to shape the future of medical devices, and her influence extends far beyond the laboratory, inspiring a new genera?on of engineers to reach for the stars in the world of material transforma?on science. The cultural landscape has somewhat influenced Jacqueline's ability to push her limits in various medical device design and manufacturing aspects. For example, her focus has been enhancing the medical material data management philosophy and the digitaliza?on of the data itself. Jacqueline's previous contribu?on is also around the segrega?on of medical grade materials away from the technical grade candidates/thus moving away from legacy technology by purging out old chemistries. Shining on the Horizon with Excellence Shedding the spotlight on the odyssey, Jacqueline may have to look back on her career path with a filter as she has always been seeking unmet needs or, for that ma?er, unchartered territories within and external to her company, JNJ. Finally, and with in-house support, she recently launched internal E-submission processes and retrieval techniques for be?er traceability and efficacy. Addi?onally, she collaborated and embarked on using informa?on automa?on (IA) and data science algorithms for trend iden?fica?on of historical material analysis reports and data, verdict crea?on and many more. This strong desire is intended to make a difference in humanity. For some unknown reason, Jacqueline gravitated to undiscovered areas so much that in 2012, she discovered that the medical industry did not have a standalone material database. All these have improved and provided confidence in Ethicon's material decisions and device-level traceability. This is an example of using data science in the medical/healthcare sector. All that was available in the industry was the Campus, Material and Process Universe, the prospector, etc., which only had materials intended for non-medical applica?ons. Given that grades in these databases had not been screened for biocompa?bility as an added requirement. Leading with an Example of Coherency Jacqueline's vision and missions are mostly novel; it takes special skills to draw and rally people in and obtain funding for execu?on.

Therefore, working with other external teams to innovate and/or solve complex problems is normal. From her perspec?ve, it's easier to implement an idea in a "pull" posi?on than if you had to "push." So, for years, Jacqueline has always promoted ideas such that they become a pull. It starts with clear communica?on, defining the vision as a leader, and sta?ng the benefits to her internal or external clients. In furtherance of that, they have strategic alliances with some of the suppliers and vendors; and can tap into some of their technical support offerings/facili?es to solve complex problems with precision and speed due to the proximity of their laboratories.

Study all available complaints cases and innovate from that direc?on. As you solve problems to improve the well-being of humanity, so does your mark shine.” Another secret Jacqueline lives by is to answer the ques?on, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" and pursue that with her compassion.

This ar?cle explores how businesses can maximize MarTech to enhance their B2B marke?ng efforts and achieve sustainable growth. Content Marke?ng and Automa?on staying ahead of the compe??on requires leveraging the right tools and technologies. Marke?ng Technology, or MarTech, plays a Content is king in B2B marke?ng. MarTech tools facilitate content crea?on, distribu?on, and management. Automa?on pla?orms can schedule and op?mize content delivery, ensuring that the right content reaches the right audience at the right ?me. This not only saves ?me but also enhances the effec?veness of content marke?ng campaigns. Understanding MarTech Email Marke?ng Op?miza?on MarTech refers to the array of technologies that marketers use to streamline and enhance their marke?ng efforts. In the B2B context, it includes tools for customer rela?onship management (CRM), content management, email marke?ng, social media management, analy?cs, and more. The integra?on of these tools can create a seamless and data-driven marke?ng ecosystem. Email remains a powerful B2B communica?on channel. MarTech tools help in crea?ng targeted email campaigns, automa?ng follow-ups, and analyzing email performance. Leveraging machine learning algorithms, marketers can personalize email content based on recipient behavior, increasing open and click-through rates. Data-Driven Decision Making Social Media Management MarTech enables B2B marketers to collect, analyze, and interpret vast amounts of data. U?lizing customer insights, behavior analy?cs, and market trends, businesses can make informed decisions. By leveraging data-driven strategies, marketers can personalize content, refine targe?ng, and op?mize campaigns for be?er engagement and conversion rates. B2B businesses can effec?vely engage with their audience through social media pla?orms. MarTech tools aid in scheduling posts, analyzing social media metrics, and monitoring brand men?ons. Integra?on with CRM systems allows for a seamless connec?on between social media interac?ons and customer data. Analy?cs and Repor?ng Customer Rela?onship Management (CRM) MarTech provides advanced analy?cs and repor?ng tools that empower marketers to measure the success of their campaigns. By tracking key performance indicators (KPIs), businesses can assess the impact of their marke?ng efforts, iden?fy areas for improvement, and make data-backed adjustments for be?er results. A robust CRM system is a cornerstone of B2B marke?ng. It helps in managing customer interac?ons, tracking leads, and nurturing rela?onships throughout the sales funnel. Integra?ng MarTech solu?ons with CRM allows for a holis?c view of customer interac?ons, enabling personalized communica?on and targeted marke?ng efforts. 16 17 www.thecioleaders.com January 2024
