🏳️🌈🌍 Let's Talk Inclusivity! 🌍🏳️🌈 I'm curious about something, and I'd love to hear your thoughts. 🤔 I've been pondering whether having a gay pride flag on my LinkedIn profile increases or limits opportunities with other businesses. In a world that values diversity and inclusion, is it a potential conversation starter or a potential roadblock? I believe that being open about who we are fosters a culture of authenticity and acceptance, but I'm interested to know your perspective. Have you experienced any impact, positive or negative, by showcasing your pride or support for the LGBTQ+ community on professional platforms? Let's chat about it! Drop your thoughts in the comments below. 🗣️👇 #DiversityandInclusion #LGBTQ+ #ProfessionalIdentity #DEI

🌈 Pride Is Here: And So Is The Rainbow Washing! 🙃 Instead of me explaining what rainbow washing is, take a look at this clip from ‘The Bald and the Beautiful with Trixie & Katya’ 🎤 Sometimes, a bit of humour helps drive the point home! 🤣 "HI GAY!! 😀🏳️🌈" keeps popping into my head when I see a company's Pride Month post, whether I mean it to or not 😅 As an LGBTQ+ professional, I find this funny but... a bit too real. While I appreciate visibility, I also want to see genuine commitment. Companies have a platform and a responsibility. Real support means more than a colourful logo & discount code. It's about inclusive workplaces, policy advocacy, and year-round allyship ✊ In social media, where authenticity is highly valued, people can spot the difference between genuine support and mere performance. Have you seen any rainbow washing yet? Or a good example of allyship? . . . . #PrideMonth #PrideMonth2024 #Inclusion #AuthenticAllyship #LGBTQ+ #LGBTQIA+ #Diversity #RainbowWashing #SocialMedia #PrideMarketing #Marketing

#PrideMonth is here, and so is (possible) #RainbowWashing.  I have been actively talking about the #LGBTQ community on #SocialMedia, panels, corporate events, and more. Showing that Authenticity brings me fulfillment. However, I also take responsibility for being a representative of the #Queer community, while also being extremely vulnerable (even though it never stops being uncomfortable and scary). So, here are the top 5 reasons why I will refuse to speak at your MNC on LGBTQ+ Awareness: 🏳️🌈 You package your offer as an Exposure opportunity for me. But it’s not me, but you who needs the exposure. 🏳️🌈 You only invite me in June. You don't really care about awareness, you only care about Rainbow-washing. 🏳️🌈 You treat my session as an item off your corporate checklist. The last thing we need is #Tokenism. 🏳️🌈 You don't have any actionable plans for making your workplace more safe and #Inclusive. 🏳️🌈 You think you’re doing the community a favor, but you’re in fact inviting the speaker to relive and be brutally honest about their trauma, without the respect they deserve. Showing solidarity Externally, while you’re Internally not inclusive is visible.  I will not speak for your MNC as a token for you to get brownie points. 🏳️🌈 If you’re a real #Ally, support your colleagues, show support, and take action throughout the year. Respect people as the Subject Matter Experts they are—at being Queer. I hope this post inspires you to do so. ***** 🚀 Follow Gurnoor Kaur Behl for more! ***** #ContentCreation #SafeSpaces #Success #Growth #ProfessionalSpeaker #DEI #Out365
