There is general agreement that diversity and inclusion in the workplace is highly desirable. In addition to arguments around fairness, many would argue that diverse and inclusive workplaces are more innovative and have higher performance. However, building such a workplace can be challenging, especially for statistics departments in the pharmaceutical industry. Among the challenges are finding, hiring, and retaining candidates with diverse backgrounds. In this meet-up we will examine how three Pharma are attempting to meet some of these challenges.
