It's one of my core beliefs that diverse teams are the most innovative, collaborative and productive. These tips are really helpful to anyone, and any business, on any stage of the journey to building diverse, high-performing teams.

Embracing 🏳️🌈 LGBTQ+ diversity isn't just a moral imperative; it's also a smart business strategy. Research by McKinsey found that companies in the top quartile for LGBTQ+ inclusion are 25% more likely to have above-average profitability. 📈 Furthermore, a report by Out Leadership revealed that LGBTQ+-friendly policies can attract top talent, with 58% of LGBTQ+ employees stating they would consider leaving a job if the company wasn't supportive.  This Pride Month, let's reaffirm our commitment to fostering inclusive workplaces where everyone can thrive, driving success while championing equality. 🌈 #HRXcelerate #PrideMonth #Equality #Diversity #LGBTQ+ #Inclusivity 

EY's 2024 LGBTQ+ Workplace Barometer highlights a pressing need for action in #inclusivity, emphasizing the unique needs of the Gen Z LGBTQ+ workforce. For Fortune 500 companies, just a 5% boost in LGBTQ+ retention could mean saving $4.2 million annually in turnover costs. With Gen Z's significant LGBTQ+ identification and differing views on inclusivity, tailored DEI strategies are crucial. https://bit.ly/3TkbGhE #DEI #FutureOfWork

Beyond ethical considerations, creating an inclusive workplace for Gen Z LGBTQ+ employees turns out to be a smart investment. Anticipating that the Gen Z LGBTQ+ talent pool in the U.S. will surpass 10 million individuals within the next decade, getting it right could translate into annual savings of nearly $4.2 billion. Impressing numbers that once again remind everybody of the tremendous value of DEI. #Inclusion #BetterWorkingWorld

How are you using Pride Month to embed inclusion that extends beyond the 30 days? It's crucial that businesses use Pride Month to commit to tangible actions for LGBTQ+ inclusion that go beyond statements of solidarity and changing corporate logos for the month. LGBTQ+ employees deserve equitable tools, strong allyship and to thrive in organizations where they are safe, respected and able to be their full selves. The first step in embedding inclusion requires businesses to better understand LGBTQ+ histories, global contexts and even the appropriate language to use when discussing issues that LGBTQ+ communities face.
