Closing the Trust Gap | 2019 Executive Luncheon: Eli Lilly & Co. Employee Perspective

June 13, 2019 - The National Organization on Disability (NOD) hosted an executive luncheon for its Corporate Leadership Council (CLC) members at the Ford Foundation Center for Social Justice.

The event, which drew nearly 100 professionals, centered on the topic of trust as integral to building an inclusive, engaged workforce, with a particular focus on self-identification (self-ID) rates – or the percentage of employees who voluntarily inform their employers that they have a disability – as a core measure of organizational trust.

CLC members explored emergent research and case studies from an impressive line-up of leaders who have successfully built trust with their employees, including:

Douglas R. Conant, Founder + CEO, ConantLeadership and the former CEO of The Campbell Soup Company;

Tonia Ries, Executive Director, Edelman Intellectual Property + Edelman Trust Barometer;

Adela Ruiz, Program Assistant, Office of the President, Ford Foundation; and

Dr. Andrea Sassman-Kolesaric, Clinical Trial Management Consultant and Inspection Readiness Lead, Eli Lilly and Company.
