Tina Graves｜Vice President & General Manager, GSK Taiwan
Tina Graves is a global healthcare executive with over two decades of experience across the pharmaceutical industry, with leadership roles spanning North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. Since joining GSK in 2015, she has worked across multiple markets and functions, bringing a perspective shaped by both scientific grounding and commercial strategy.
As Vice President and General Manager of GSK Taiwan, she leads the organisation’s efforts to expand patient access to innovation while supporting the needs of Taiwan’s evolving healthcare system. Her leadership aligns closely with GSK’s global focus on vaccines and specialty care, with particular attention to areas such as adult immunisation and healthy ageing in response to Taiwan’s rapidly ageing population.
Summary
For Tina Graves, leadership is about creating a space where people feel safe enough to speak, try, and even fail. After more than two decades in global healthcare, across cultures and systems, she has learned that what’s often left unsaid matters just as much as what is. Now Vice President and General Manager of GSK Taiwan, Tina leads with a deep awareness of people — reading the room, responding with intention, and building trust through how she shows up every day.
In this conversation, Tina reflects on what it truly takes to build psychological safety — not through words, but through consistent actions and reactions. From navigating cultural nuance in Asia to leading teams through uncertainty, she shares how leaders set the tone by example, and why courage often starts quietly. At its core, this episode is a reminder that leadership isn’t about having control — it’s about creating the conditions where others can thrive.
