As a Relationship Manager at Workplace Pride, Robert Corvers takes great pride in the work he does for our members and his community. Recently, Robert had the privilege to share his personal story and expertise on LGBTIQ+ inclusion in the workplace during a panel discussion at Squire Patton Boggs. 📽 You can view the video below. This opportunity was not just important; it was necessary. Globally, we are witnessing the resurgence of anti-gay laws in countries like Ghana, Russia, and even the US. Unfortunately, this often translates into increased discrimination and microaggressions against the LGBTIQ+ community. It is crucial for employers to not only acknowledge this issue but also take action. Prioritising inclusion aligns seamlessly with business objectives. It fosters a win-win situation – not only do satisfied employees result, but it also contributes to higher profits in the long run. #WorkplacePride #LGBTHistoryMonth  #InclusiveWorkplace  #LGBTIQ

Partner with LGBTQ+ creators. Let the community own the narrative. Amplify their voices and showcase their talent. True advocacy is about empowering others, not just tooting your own horn.

Reflecting on Pride Month: The transition from June to July may see the symbols of Pride Month replaced as other causes take the spotlight, but the spirit of what has been celebrated should not be confined to one month alone. The conversations sparked, the stories shared, and the awareness raised are steps in a year-round journey towards understanding and acceptance.   It's hoped that during this month, people have not only shown support but have also taken the opportunity to educate themselves about the significant contributions made by individuals in the LGBTQ+ community. These contributions have been pivotal in the advancement of rights and acceptance, marking key milestones in a long journey that continues every day.   As we move forward into the rest of the year, let's carry with us the lessons learned and the conversations had, keeping the dialogue open and the progress ongoing. Pride Month may end, but the commitment to learning, understanding, and advocating for the LGBTQ+ community must persist, ensuring that the recognition and support are not just annual events, but integral parts of our daily lives. Pride is more than a month; it's a lifelong commitment to equality and respect for all. #PeopleFirst #PrideMonth #LGBTQ #PrideVisibility
