    Defining Diversity and Living with Disability

    What does diversity mean? While many think of the differences we can see, most forget those we can’t. On this episode of Career on Purpose, we're joined by Alyssa Kobela, Associate Principal Scientist at Merck and a lead member of the company’s capABILITY Network – the employee resource group committed to creating a safe and empathetic space for Merck colleagues with disabilities and their allies. When most people and companies think about diversity, equity and inclusion (or DE&I), they think about a handful of specific communities. People of color, women, those in the LGBTQ+ community, veterans. But one group that doesn’t automatically come to mind is the disabled community. With the exception of Merck, that is. In this episode, we talk to Alyssa about her Merck career and her multiple sclerosis (MS) diagnosis, why the support she received from her colleagues was so vital, and how the company continues to support those across the diversity spectrum.
