Lisa Toppin

Global Head of DEI for Illumina

[Jemele Hill @jemelehill]

This is why I tell journalism students that open-ended questions are better than questions that sound tough. When conservatives first hijacked “woke,” every journalist should have asked them to define it. Cause these meltdowns would have happened a lot.

[Lisa Toppin @DrLisaToppin]

Ask me why I proud to work for Illumina? I say roll the tape. Congratulations Francis and thank you for your leadership.

[Phillip Febbo, MD @PhilFebboMD_CMO]

@Envirosharon @devex @illumina @PhilFebboMD_CMO @BelindaNgongo @gayewalker When the conversation shifts to “how” then we know we are making progress.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

We all seek status. Part of maturity is evolving how we pursue it.

1. Materialism: respect me for the possessions I own

2. Mastery: respect me for the excellence I achieve

3. Morality: respect me for the virtues I embody

4. Wisdom: the highest form of respect is self-respect

With so many analytics at our fingertips, it's crucial that we look beyond the numbers to lead and guide properly. Read my latest contribution to @Forbes Human Resources Council (link below) to find out why. https://t.co/CtJJdc7h6S

[Lisa Toppin @DrLisaToppin]

I appreciate the opportunity to learn from each response to my recent comment & value your perspectives. I do agree: Never stay in toxic situation & prioritize your mental health. I do also suggest careful & thoughtful navigation of workplace challenges.

[Lisa Toppin @DrLisaToppin]

@merrilyn57 Merrilyn is right. This holds for any disciplie!

[Lisa Toppin @DrLisaToppin]

@JermaineJupiter Protect your work history as well. Can’t run at the first sight of trouble always because trouble is too common.Need to stay long enough to learn new things. If you cut & run too often, employers will stop calling because your resume will look lik you cut & run. Not attractive.

[Lisa Toppin @DrLisaToppin]

@foshowentmnt @brien_troy @RobertDowneyJr Cogratulations Robert. So nice to see you so happy. Brien you wife leaving was you. You learned. You are better and love will be better because you are. Go find it and then thank her for how she served your life. Your best days are ahead of you!
