In today’s episode, we’re unpacking an important yet often misunderstood component of effective publication planning: the Publication Steering Committee (PSC).

We’re joined by industry leaders Cindy Toste, Senior Director of Publications at GlaxoSmithKline, and Paul Ricigliano, Senior Director and Head of Oncology Global Publications at Daiichi Sankyo, Inc.

Together,  we explore what makes a PSC truly successful,  from establishing clear governance and managing cross-functional dynamics to defining roles across medical affairs and clinical teams. Cindy and Paul also share real-world lessons on how to navigate disagreement, maintain momentum, and ensure decisions don’t stall progress.

Whether you're forming your first PSC or optimizing an existing one, this episode offers practical guidance on turning conflict into collaboration, and collaboration into meaningful publication outcomes.
