Public policy has the power to help close inequitable gaps in healthcare access and outcomes in our increasingly diverse world. That is one of the many reasons why representation matters at every level of government. We are proud to support the LGBTQ+ Victory Institute’s efforts to invest in the next generation of public leaders. Since 2021, the number of LGBTQ+ candidates on the ballot has increased by nearly 32%, and employees across our company are working to continue driving this progress. Below, hear more from Brian Maloney and Tammy Bima, Genentech employees and Victory Institute volunteers, about the importance of this work, and learn more about the organization’s impact here: https://lnkd.in/ehHGZ3xf

With DEI initiatives seeing increasing pushback across the globe, our recent panel discussion in Mexico explored, through a cross-cultural lens, the importance of LGBTQ+ inclusion, with panelists sharing personal stories, embracing their identities, and being their authentic selves in the workplace. ➡ Visibility matters: Sharing our stories helps break down barriers and building an inclusive culture. ➡ Tone from the top: Colleagues feel supported and seen when senior leaders engage. ➡ Policies matter. Small changes in people policies (particularly when it comes to supporting planning for non-traditional families) can make a big difference. ➡ Supporting junior talent: Senior colleagues can help junior talent navigate authenticity and differing experiences and viewpoints.
