Our employees 100 years apart. Same heart. Same purpose.
This week we celebrated 150 years and the incredible people who've made every one of them count. But if you know Lilly people, you know the celebration and the commitment exist side by side. The work doesn't stop, because we know what it means to the patients counting on us.
150 years down. The best still ahead. #WeAreLilly #Lilly150
Pools closed. Kids were kept indoors. It wasn’t a question of whether polio would come. It was whether it would come for you. One vaccine — and the trust from one scientist confident we could answer an urgent call — changed everything. #WeAreLilly #Lilly150
The answers we’re in search of, and the tools we use to find them, would probably sound like science fiction to a 1920s Lilly scientist. But the curiosity that drives us? They’d know that very well.
150 years of curiosity. And we're just getting started. #WeAreLilly #Lilly150
Six years old. 26 pounds. In 1922, starvation was the only treatment for people living with type 1 diabetes, like Teddy. It bought time. It didn’t save lives.
That changed when Canadian researchers isolated insulin and Lilly got to work scaling the discovery into a reliable supply. Teddy was one of the first to receive it, and a year later, he was climbing trees. He lived to 76. #WeAreLilly #Lilly150
#LillyPartner If you wait to feel ready, you’re never going to start. So start how you can. Exercise is one of the most powerful preventative medicines. #WeAreLilly
For the people relying on our medicines, it isn’t about the medicines at all. It’s about everything a person can do because of them. #WeAreLilly #Lilly150
150 years of history. 150 years of commitment to being better and better. Longevity like this doesn’t happen by accident. It comes from hundreds of thousands of employees, unified across time, in a shared purpose — to improve health for people around the world.
When you consistently see the possibilities to help humanity before you, you stay focused. The vision remains clear. And that’s what will fuel the next 150. #WeAreLilly #Lilly150
#LillyPartners For #TeamUSA Olympic speedskater Erin Jackson, years of training can come down to fractions of a second. The buildup is intense. The race is fast. And when it’s over, recovery begins.
In conversation with @Shaq , Erin shares the lessons learned and the mindset that keeps her moving forward. Because one race doesn’t define the journey, it’s all about what comes next. #WeAreLilly
