Self-identification campaign: This Is Me To further our commitment to DEI, McKesson refreshed our self-identification campaign — branded internally as This is Me . The campaign facilitated opportunities for employees to voluntarily share how they identify, which improved our ability to monitor retention and promotion activities across the enterprise. Across North America, we focused on expanding self-identification fields, including sexual orientation and transgender status, in support of our LGBTQ+ community. This effort was followed by options for employees to self-select their preferred pronouns. In Canada, we also enhanced options to self-identify disability status and expanded the list of ethnicity options, moving away from the standard language of “visible minority.” “Inclusion starts with understanding and knowledge of those we engage with. That’s why I took the great opportunity at McKesson to self-ID, claiming my identity and bringing my full self to my career,” said Sabina Katyal, director of marketing communications for Medical-Surgical. Focused learning modules: inclusion sprints As McKesson employees and leaders built on personal capabilities to enhance our culture, specific and focused learning modules — known as inclusion sprints — were deployed throughout the year. These trainings emphasized the importance of empathy in everyday interactions with coworkers that, in turn, set a path toward greater understanding and inclusion. “These focused learning modules and inclusion sprints have been key components to our diversity and inclusion efforts, helping to promote understanding, awareness and compassion across all groups,” said Stephen Ford, vice president, information security. “ I am very encouraged by these and other commitments to a more inclusive culture with a focus on being the best place to work in healthcare .” Employees explored topics that highlighted critical elements of inclusion, including appreciating differences and the positive impact of the ally community. The inclusion sprints also empowered employees to create a work environment that sets the right tone for their teams and the company. By conducting focus group discussions, leader interviews and benchmarking best practices in different industries, we elevated employee voices at all levels and across many cultures, identities, and backgrounds.
