The Future Is Fluid & In Colour: How to Embed LGBTQ2+ Inclusion for HR, People, & DEI Leaders

With greater visibility and awareness around sexual and gender diversity alongside meaningful cultural change and civil rights victories, many companies are now asking the vital question of how they can best support their LGBTQ2+ employees. Too often sexual and gender diversity has been relegated to the shadows of office initiatives due to unjust politicization and sensationalism. Our sexual and gender identities are fundamental parts of who we are — company policies and procedures should be designed not only to accommodate but to celebrate them. Drawing on Feminuity's newly released resource, A Guide to LGBTQ2+ Inclusion for HR, People, & DEI Leaders, this talk will unpack leading practices for workplaces to adapt to the sexual and gender fluidity that increasingly characterizes our world. From restrooms to dress codes to your company strategy around sharing pronouns, our recommendations will break you out of the binary and into the future. In the structure and ethos of your policies, benefits, and workplace culture, you can proactively transform your office by putting LGBTQ2+ considerations front and center.
