Diversity fosters innovation, advances the work environment, and enriches patient care. Despite that, only 17%, 5%, and 3% of cardiothoracic (CT) surgeons in academia were women, Hispanic, and Black, respectively. Diversity, equity, and inclusion goals and deliberate initiatives are necessary to eradicate disparities in the CT workforce. Leading organizational changes from the top down is paramount and above all else, changes and improvements should be based on a meritocracy.
多样性促进创新，改善工作环境，丰富患者护理。尽管如此，学术领域中的心胸外科医生中，女性、西班牙裔和非裔分别仅占 17%、5%和 3%。多样性、公平和包容目标以及深思熟虑的举措对于消除心胸外科劳动力中的差异是必要的。从高层领导开始进行组织变革至关重要，最重要的是，变革和改进应该基于精英管理原则。
