This is Quick with Novartis' CEO Vas Narasimhan

This Is Working with Daniel Roth

After we finish recording This is Working (the video series), we cajole guests to stick around for quick answers to questions about productivity and career growth — a feature called This is Quick. In this week's session, Vas Narasimhan tells us why he carries a 400-million-year old fossil around with him, how a college trip impacted his career path, and which mentor had lasting impact on his life.
