lgbti in the workplace

The walk-through will include a detailed look at the new Member’s-only area features such as the: 

• Workplace Pride UN LGBTI Standards Toolkit
• LGBTI Workplace Resources library
• Organisational Employee Survey
• Contact Directory for Workplace Pride Members

and other resources that will help our members better engage with the Foundation and each other. 

Objectives:

This webinar will introduce our members and other stakeholders to the new Workplace Pride website. It will help them learn to navigate the additional functionality, especially for members who will have a wide range of new possibilities to support their LGBTI workplace inclusion efforts. 

The webinar will include an open discussion in the last section allowing participants to exchange ideas and even suggest improvements. Within the new working reality that we are all facing due to the COVID-19 crisis, we are hopeful that the new Workplace Pride Website will help organisations and the LGBTI community begin to think out of the box for the future of our movement. 

Host: David Pollard (Executive Director Workplace Pride)

Audience: Workplace Pride members, but also open to LGBTI workplace friends & allies

Our generation fought for basic rights; your generation expects them hosted by Young@WorkplacePride

What is the next step for LGBTI inclusion in the workplace: a conversation between experience groups hosted by Young@WorkplacePride

In the third event of our “Keeping Members Connected” series, Young@WorkplacePride invites you to share your thoughts about what the future of LGBTI+ inclusion looks like in the workplace:

• What do we expect from our workplaces? 
• Is the use of policies and symbolism enough? 
• Do we rely more on the use of stories and role models of that LGBTI executive that made it to the board of the company? Or both? 
• Is that enough to guarantee inclusion or do we need to go a few layers deeper? And if so, what is it then to make us all feel included? 

Objectives:

In a recent conversation, someone who has around 20 years of experience, accurately mused to one of our Young@Workplace Pride Board members, “Our generation fought for basic rights; your generation expects them.” 

So the question is: What do we expect from our workplaces? Is it the use of policies and symbolism, such as the Dutch Railways changing their address to people from “Dear Ladies/Gentlemen” to “Dear Travelers”? Or do we rely more on the use of stories and role models of that LGBTI executive that made it to the board of the company? Or both? Is that enough to guarantee inclusion or do we need to go a few layers deeper? And if so, what is it then to make us all feel included? 

We’ll begin with an introduction that dives a bit more into the development of this topic and purpose of this workshop to contextualize and trigger the interest for all. Attendees will break out into groups with 0-5 and 5+ working experience, led by our teams. Within the session, we aim to put a short break for them to reflect and provide their views. Afterward, we would then like to discuss those and make a comparison between the experience groups.

Work hard and B.proud Hosted by Booking.com

In the fourth live webinar event of our “Keeping Members Connected” series, Booking.com’s B.proud network global chair and co-chair of B.Proud will share their vision on the journey so far :

• How did B.proud get here? 
• What did they learn along the way?
• What have we been doing to support our community during COVID-19?
• And maybe most importantly: what challenges are still ahead, especially in a time where most companies struggle to stay connected while being physically apart?

Today, Booking.com’s B.proud network consists of a global community and an ally network of 2700+ employees. This, of course, did not happen overnight and took a lot of hard work.

We are pleased to invite you to the 9th live webinar in our “Keeping Members Connected” series. This webinar will be held in Dutch with the title: “Hoe dragen LHBTI+ netwerken binnen de publieke sector bij aan een inclusieve organisatiecultuur?”,  and will be hosted by Public Sector members at Workplace Pride.   

De publieke sector heeft een brede sociale en maatschappelijke verantwoordelijkheid, zowel als het gaat om het bevorderen van diversiteit & inclusiviteit in het algemeen, als voor de LHBTI+ gemeenschap in het bijzonder.   

In deze webinar zullen de volgende thema’s aan de orde komen:

• Hoe is dit intern voor de organisaties binnen het publieke domein geregeld? Meestal is een HR afdeling, gecombineerd met een D&I team verantwoordelijk voor het formuleren en opstellen van beleid waarmee voorwaarden worden gecreëerd zodat iedere medewerker zich veilig zou moeten voelen.
• Een veilige werkvloer draagt bij aan een prettige werkomgeving waarin creativiteit gestimuleerd wordt en je beter presteert. LHBTI+ medewerkersnetwerken weten dat zij een krachtige positie kunnen hebben om diversiteit en inclusie te bevorderen vanuit hun persoonlijke ervaring en intrinsieke motivatie.
• Hoe zet je het LHBTI+ netwerk in om zoveel mogelijk invloed uit te oefenen op bijvoorbeeld het aanstellings- en selectiebeleid, het ontwikkelen van personeel en van leiderschapstrajecten in de organisatie.
• Welke lessen kunnen we leren van Dutch Government Pride, B/Proud netwerk van het ministerie van Financiën en de Belastingdienst, en het Roze Ambtenaren Netwerk van de gemeente Amsterdam?

Moderator: 

• Anna Tijsseling, Dr. In de Sexualiteitsgeschiedenis, Trainer en Counselor

Experts:

• Angelique Meul, Voorzitter Roze Ambtenaren Netwerk (RAN) – Gemeente Amsterdam, bestuurslid Workplace Pride Foundation
• Mark van Enckevort, Voorzitter Dutch Government Pride en B/Proud, Ministerie van Financiën
