Belongingness is a key element to ensuring someone’s psychological safety at work. This is true for all employees, but especially true for marginalized groups such as those who identify as members of the LGBTQ+ community. However, nearly two-thirds (59%) of non-LGBTQ+ employees believe it is “unprofessional” to discuss sexual orientation or gender identity in the workplace. Inclusive leadership begins with recognizing and valuing all aspects of identity. Learn from our speakers how inclusive leaders can create environments where all employees can thrive.
