Elanco’s annual Multicultural Summit is a critically important event to our company each year. Powerful messages from guest speaker Daisy Auger-Dominguez (she/her/ella): 💬We take the same paths around the office, seeing the same people. We’re wired to seek comfort and wired to run away from discomfort. We make decisions daily that are based on biases that we haven’t examined, that we don’t even recognize. Big takeaway: Incremental evolutions sometimes don’t work – we need a revolution. Daisy gave us the shake we needed to start our own inclusion revolution at Elanco. Thank you for challenging me to be a little better every day, Daisy! #WeAreElanco #Inclusion #DEI
