🌈 Building a more inclusive workplace starts with education. Take some time this month to learn about LGBTQ history, terminology, and the challenges faced by LGBTQ employees. Drop your favorite resources in the comments! #LGBTQInclusion #WorkplaceEquality #BEinclusive
It is the start of #PrideMonth. An opportunity to share the history, learn about the influential people and support each other no matter who they are. Each week we are internally sharing topics on LGBTQ+ history, using the correct terminology, who the influential LGBTQ+ people are and how we as a business are being #inclusive.

✨ LGBTQ+ History Month ✨ In case you didn't know, February is LGBTQ+ History month. Last week, to kick things off, Lucy Morgan and Seba Dyer joined a panel discussion for Campaign LGBTQ+ on allyship in the work place - there was some really interesting takeaways, so we thought we would share some of them throughout the month. 👉 Allyship Tip 1: Check your privilege 👈 Recognising your own privilege helps you to be more supportive to all marginalised groups, not just LGBTQ+ people. It forces you to view things through a different lens, and opens your eyes to inclusion. Reflecting and recognising your own unearned privileges in different aspects of your life allows you to support others who do not benefit in the same way and be a better ally to those who need it! #lgbtqhistorymonth #inclusion #allyship #podtalent

Pride Month reminds us of the beauty of diversity. Pride is not just a month—it's a lifelong commitment to equality and justice for all. Pride is more than a celebration; it's a call to action. It's an invitation to join a movement that seeks to build a more inclusive and equitable world. Participate in local events, support LGBTQ+ organizations, and educate ourselves and others. Every action, no matter how small, contributes to a larger wave of change. At Accenture, we know that #PrideMeansMore when we come together. Pride means more love, allies and innovation. Comment below on what #Pride means to you. https://accntu.re/4c29HX2
June is Pride Month. For the LGBTQ+ community, #PrideMonth promotes dignity, equal rights, and self-affirmation and is a way of increasing society’s awareness of the issues they face. As companies engage in DEI planning and initiatives, it is key that all groups are represented. The acronym LGBTQ+ has been extended to encompass a more diverse group, most recently shown as LGBTQIA2s+, indicating the continued focus on inclusion for all. As an employer, are you ensuring a welcoming, supportive, and safe workplace for all people? Do you recognize the unique talents of each individual, helping create an environment that enables employees to do their best? ➡️Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gxec7-iv
Companies miss the mark on this concept, let us explain: Being Queer is all about counter culture – punks, grunge, sex workers, creatives and more. It can be tempting to slap a rainbow and call it Queer, but that actually goes opposite to the authentic roots of LGBTQ culture. Queer people find solace in nightlife like clubs, niche communities like fandoms, and activities like gaming. If you would like to find out how to go beyond rainbows, and REALLY start connecting with the LGBTQ+ community – a nice place to start would be embracing counter culture, get weird, and remain curious.
