I am an LGBTQ+ ally because it's important to me that everyone, regardless of gender, or sexual orientation, feels safe, respected, and celebrated for who they are. Diversity and Inclusion are not just buzzwords; they're fundamental values we should all champion. What you can do this month to be a better ally: 🌈 Take time to educate yourself on historical challenges and societal impact of the LGBTQ+ community. Understanding hardships and triumphs is crucial to effective allyship. 🌈 Be visible, show your support openly by attending Pride events in your local area or supporting a local LGBTQ+ owned business. Not just in June, but all year round. 🌈 Support an LGBTQ+ Organization with a donation or fundraiser. Egale is an organization in Canada with a mission to: "improve the lives of 2SLGBTQI people in Canada and to enhance the global response to 2SLGBTQI issues." 🌈Amplify LGBTQ+ voices, share a post on your social media, share art or activism, share resources like books and podcasts, be an advocate for their rights and visibility. An ally's role is to amplify, not overshadow.

Ferreira is deeply committed to supplier diversity and actively engages in this practice, exemplified by our attendance at events aimed at connecting with diverse suppliers. Supplier diversity, a vital business practice, involves including businesses owned by individuals from traditionally underrepresented or underserved groups in our procurement processes. Our active pursuit of diverse suppliers, who are at least 51% owned and operated by such individuals, extends to various classifications, including MBEs, WBEs, SBEs, and other minority-owned businesses, such as those led by LGBTQ+, veterans, and persons with disabilities. We reinforce our dedication to fostering an inclusive and equitable business environment by participating in events and networking opportunities.

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

🌈🏳️🌈 Today, we proudly celebrate National Coming Out Day, a day dedicated to fostering love, acceptance, and inclusion for the LGBTQ+ community. Let's stand together, support each other, and create a world where everyone feels comfortable being their authentic selves. 🌈🏳️🌈 National Coming Out Day is also a day our youth will most likely come out! Here are 5 tips to support youth! You can follow to support a youth if they come out to you: ⭐️Thank the youth for trusting you in their coming out process. ⭐️Ask them what support they need. ⭐️Make sure to clarify the extent of their coming out. Just because they have come out to you does not mean they have come out to everyone. ⭐️Follow their lead. Do not ask too many personal questions or pry. This may be a difficult conversation for them to have. ⭐️Ask them what name or pronouns they prefer. Drop 🌈 in the comments to celebrate National Coming Out Day! #NationalComingOutDay #LoveIsLove #BeYourself

Hey Marketers, It's Pride Month, but ditch the rainbow washing! This year, focus on REAL connections with the LGBTQ+ community. Ditch the fluff, deliver value. Pride merch is cool, but what about creating a valuable resource for the LGBTQ+ community? Think Skittles- it shows you understand their needs. 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. Pride is year-round. Don't be a one-month wonder. Integrate LGBTQ+ support into your brand like MAC Cosmetics. Real allyship is a long-term commitment. #PrideMonth #LGBTQ+Ally #AuthenticMarketing

🌈 Embracing Diversity: Celebrating International Coming Out Day 🏳️🌈 Dear LinkedIn Community, Today, we stand together to celebrate International Coming Out Day, a day dedicated to promoting acceptance, understanding, and support for LGBTQ+ individuals. As professionals and allies, it's crucial that we recognize and embrace the diverse tapestry of humanity that makes our global workplace vibrant and strong. In the workplace, diversity isn't just about ethnicity, gender, or age; it also encompasses sexual orientation and gender identity. It's about creating a space where every individual feels safe, valued, and empowered to bring their whole selves to work. Coming out can be a deeply personal and sometimes challenging journey. Many LGBTQ+ individuals face discrimination, bias, and fear. As a community, we must be allies, creating an inclusive environment that ensures nobody has to hide who they are or whom they love. Let us remember that diverse teams are more innovative, creative, and ultimately more successful. When people can be themselves, they can focus on their work, their passions, and their contributions to the world. On this International Coming Out Day, let us pledge to: Foster Inclusivity: Create a workplace where everyone feels safe and supported, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity. Listen and Learn: Be open to conversations about LGBTQ+ experiences, challenges, and victories. Understanding is the first step towards true allyship. Challenge Stereotypes: Challenge stereotypes and biases whenever and wherever you encounter them. Use your platform to educate and advocate. Be Visible Allies: Stand proudly alongside LGBTQ+ colleagues, friends, and family members, demonstrating our commitment to their well-being and success. Celebrate Diversity: Recognize that embracing diversity enriches our professional lives and makes our global community stronger. By working together, we can create a more inclusive, equitable, and diverse workplace that empowers everyone to reach their full potential. Let's stand in unity and ensure that International Coming Out Day serves as a reminder of our shared commitment to inclusivity and acceptance. Together, we can build a world where everyone is free to be their authentic selves, in the workplace and beyond. #InternationalComingOutDay #DiversityandInclusion #Inclusivity #LGBTQ+ #Allyship 🏳️🌈
