Let’s celebrate together Pride Month! But let’s not forget that creating a workplace culture that is LGBTQ+ inclusive goes beyond Pride Month; it’s a year-round commitment.
Over the hour, topics include:
- How to embrace inclusive and equitable practices to hire, support, and retain these individuals.
- How to recognize and understand the lived experiences of LGBTQ+ candidates and employees to set your company apart.
- How to send a clear message that your organization is committed to DEI beyond Pride Month.
