Chief Human Resources Officer Tracey Franklin guided Moderna employees through a global pandemic while supporting them as they rapidly developed one of the first Covid-19 vaccines. She attributes their success to a strong culture called Moderna Mindsets.
, Tracey Franklin was faced with an immense professional challenge – guiding the biotech company and its employees through a global pandemic while supporting them as they rapidly developed a Covid-19 vaccine. When she first joined Moderna, which was founded in 2010, it was truly a startup with just 800 employees and no commercial products. Yet the company experienced explosive growth, became a household name, and was thrust into the global spotlight with the vaccine’s release.
Franklin had to throw out the traditional leadership playbook and adapt her management style to meet the real-time, specific needs of her organization. Over the past two years, she has spearheaded talent management and organizational strategy at Moderna, helping the company triple in size to over 3,000 employees amid the disruption of the pandemic.
“As the head of HR at Moderna, I go beyond the traditional roles – building the team, supporting our people, and growing a best-in-class benefits program, which are all critically important – to taking a significant role in shaping the business,” Franklin says. “I have a true sense of ownership across all aspects of our business, which is centered on positively impacting the health of people and patients around the world.
With its mRNA science, Moderna sprinted to bring its first commercial product—a Covid-19 vaccine—to market in record time. Today, the employees continue to work relentlessly on advancing a pipeline of 46 vaccine and therapeutic development programs to address a wide variety of health conditions..
