Dennis Schmidt Pedersen commented:

“During my six years with LEO Pharma, my team and I together took a decentralized HR delivery model and globalized it in a highly effective process. I am leaving a very skilled and high-performing Global People organization fully aligned with LEO Pharma’s strategy. I am confident that the global team will continue to solidify the model. After shaping and executing a significant transformation in the people space, I have now decided to start a new chapter in my work-life outside LEO Pharma. I want to thank my amazing team for all the great moments we have shared.”
