It was with great regret that Workplace Pride was forced to cancel our ‘Conference Lite’ planned for last Friday due to new Covid-19 regulations in the Netherlands. While we had planned on announcing the 2020 Global Benchmark top scorers at the event, we have been encouraged by the outpouring of support that these leaders have received. Congratulations again for all of their efforts!
Despite the challenges that this year is presenting us all, there is still plenty going on with LGBTI workplace inclusion! On Thursday of this week Workplace Pride will host our 13th webinar, this time on Trans integration at work. On October 27th, the Foundation’s long planned conference in Taiwan, will highlight its role as the 1st Asian country to have marriage equality. Stay tuned also for upcoming webinars on Rainbow Families (Nov. 4th), ‘Queering The Academic Curriculum” (Nov. 23rd) and our “Tech@WP event “There’s Always a Rainbow in the Cloud” on November 13th.
Flexibility, resilience and perseverance are the names of the game for us all now! The LGBTI community are experts at this though; it’s part of our DNA! Together, we can ensure that we all come out stronger and that LGBTI inclusion becomes an even MORE indispensable element of the modern workplace.
Enjoy reading!
