Eli Lilly makes list of ‘Best for Diversity’

More by this author

Indianapolis-based pharmaceutical company Eli Lilly has been named among Black Enterprise’s 50 Best Companies for Diversity in 2016.

Black Enterprise sent surveys to 1,000 publicly traded companies to “get an in-depth look at the ethnic and gender composition of these corporations, as well as understand various programs designed to foster and maintain an inclusive working environment,” according to the organization’s website.

The companies’ responses were assessed based on the following criteria:

1

Employee base: The percentage of African-Americans and members of other ethnic minority groups represented in a given company’s workforce.

2

Senior management: The percentage of senior management positions held by African-Americans and members of other ethnic groups.

3

Board of directors: The percentage of African-Americans and other ethnic minorities represented on corporate boards.

4

Procurement: The percentage of total procurement dollars spent with companies owned by African-Americans and members of other ethnic minority groups.

 

In addition to the company-wide recognition, Eli Lilly’s Chief Diversity Officer Monique Hunt-McWilliams was named on BE’s 2016 Top Executives in Corporate Diversity list.

Eli Lilly and Hunt-McWilliams were the only Indiana-based honorees named to this year’s list.
