4​Championing diversity and inclusion in life sciences leads to more innovation, greater profitability, and sustainable growth.

We know that promoting diverse and inclusive life sciences spaces accelerates creativity. Diverse viewpoints and experiences are essential in an industry that thrives on invention and problem solving. But how does creating diverse teams impact your wider organisation? Research provides a strong business case for diversity and inclusion initiatives, which mean they are more than the right thing to do – they are essential to your long-term success.

Explore 5 important ways that diversity helps life sciences organisations to win, below.

​

Diversity boosts growth

It turns out that a strong approach to diversity has a significant impact on your bottom line. Diverse organisations are 3 times more likely to enjoy revenue growth when compared with less inclusive organisations. 1

​

Diversity drives innovation

Innovation is everything in an industry that is actively helping to shape the future. Diverse thinking and experiences are a key part of fuelling creativity. Diversity of thinking enhances innovation by about 20%. 2

​

Diversity supports a great employee experience

A strong employee experience can create an army of brand ambassadors and ensure you are effective at attracting the best talent around. This is another area where diversity can help you to excel. Diverse organisations are 18% more effective at creating a positive employee experience. 3

Diversity increases innovation revenue
