Empowering the Next Generation
of Changemakers
A global pandemic, a shifting economy, and a new generation of employees have all dramatically altered the way we view work. Amidst this upheaval, many employees are increasingly looking to grasp onto something meaningful and stable in their work: purpose.
Inspiring Our People
At MorphoSys, we’re dedicated to empowering our next generation of changemakers through our mission – More life for people with cancer – which sustains and drives us both inside and outside of work. This mantra unites our teams, inspiring us to show up every day, ready to do more. By instilling this mentality within our organization, we’re in turn fostering an open and positive work culture that encourages teams to be creative, inclusive, and collaborative.
Advancing Our Careers
We invest in career development, encouraging our employees to learn, grow and bring the best versions of themselves to work. At the corporate level, we implemented dedicated programs to make this a reality, such as:
-
Our Accelerate Leadership Program, which helps develop future leaders who are self-aware and capable of driving real change, who can make an impact by achieving our aspirational goals
-
Our Mentoring Program, which pairs dedicated mentors with talented mentees, advising them and helping shape their careers so they can reach their full potential
-
Our Employee Engagement Workshops, which are set up to improve communication skills between managers and teams, especially regarding career goals and team-building
“Culture can be hard to define because it’s different for everyone. But at MorphoSys, we believe it all comes down to building a community with a shared higher purpose. Everything we do begins there – and our efforts both inside and outside the office reflect that. I’m inspired by the many ways our employees are fostering more meaningful purpose. It’s what makes MorphoSys truly special.”
Maria Castresana, SVP, Global Head of Human Resources, MorphoSys
Reaching Our Communities
Our employees’ dedication to do more extends beyond the workplace, to their communities. Many are passionate about enabling positive change through personal activities. We offer and encourage volunteering opportunities each quarter ranging from participating in cancer fundraising walks to helping homeless children and volunteering at local soup kitchens.
Some of our employees have even initiated grassroots colleague networks that give them the platforms to engage and connect on topics that are both related to their healthcare work and drive change in other areas. From MOR Pride, our LGBTQ+ organization, to our Women’s Network, a group dedicated to strengthening women’s careers in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics), MorphoSys supports a wide range of purpose-driven initiatives.
All these initiatives – fueled by the passion and dedication of our employees – are amplifying and sustaining pride and a higher purpose for our incredible team, as well as greater humanity. We’re excited to see what they will achieve in 2023 and beyond.
