Inclusion & diversity

Each voice matters

Inclusion, diversity, and equity play a critical role in driving our competitiveness. We depend on all three to bring more creativity, better decision-making, and enhanced innovation to our work.

BUILDING COMMUNITY

Networks & groups

Our Diversity Networks and Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) ensure that everyone has a platform to share their voice, collaborate across functions and programs, and advance programs and policies that promote more women and ethnically diverse employees into leadership roles. We have more than 31,000 employees involved in 12 ERGs and Diversity Networks across more than 250 hubs and chapters.

Diversity Networks give employees from underrepresented groups a platform and a pathway toward advocacy, exposure, and development. These networks are The African Descent Network; Asian Impact at Medtronic; Hispanic/Latino Network; Medtronic Women’s Network; and the PRIDE Network.

Embracing our differences

We’re creating a future that requires all our strengths — including our 95,000-plus employees and our influence as the world’s leading healthcare technology company — to advance equity in our workplace, our industry, and our communities.
