🏳️🌈 If you're a supporter of the LGBTQ+ community, you might refer to yourself as an "ally". But what does that really mean, and are you ACTUALLY as much of one as you think? 🔎 According to the Collins Dictionary, an ally is “someone who supports people who are in a minority group or who are discriminated against, even though they do not belong to that group themselves.” 💪 And when it comes to the workplace, actively supporting the LGBTQ+ community involves a variety of actions to demonstrate true allyship. 💡 In her latest article, Hannah Pearsall, head of wellbeing at Hays UK&I, explains the six steps you can take: https://lnkd.in/efP-NFAT #pridemonth #lgbtq #allyship

This week for #BlackHistoryMonth we reflect on the profound historical traumas endured by Black LGBTQ+ individuals in America, from slavery to systemic discrimination. Black LGBTQ+ people continue to confront formidable health, housing, and social justice challenges. From health care disparities to housing insecurity and social stigma, the obstacles are daunting. We can dismantle these barriers by prioritizing inclusion, understanding, and validation. Let's advocate tirelessly, listen attentively, and amplify their voices to eliminate injustice. Together, let's challenge harmful beliefs and practices that target this resilient community. #BHM2024 #BlackHistoryMonth2024 #BHM #LGBTQ+ #LGBTQ+CulturalSafety #CulutralSafety #CulturalSafetyNow #PRIDE #Queer #Resilent #ListenNow #Gender-Affirming #GenderExpression #CallToAction #BlackQueer #BlackLGBTQ+ #BlackQueerSocialJustice

In a recent campaign featuring Vice Ganda and fellow LGBTQ+ icon Paolo Ballesteros for a renowned QSR brand, the initial campaign sparked significant word-of-mouth exposure within the LGBTQ+ community, resulting in a 12-percentage point increase. The subsequent campaign, with Paolo Ballesteros's participation, effectively sustained this level within the segment. Interestingly, even among the general population, there was an increase in WOM from mid-November onwards. YouGov’s Profiles and BrandIndex, taken together, unlocks the ability to understand the effectiveness of campaigns among certain segments, with certain attitudinal profiles, or at a more granular level any time.

As a creator, when the platform you work on reaches out to share your work, it's usually a reason for celebration. LinkedIn News spotlighted some of my posts for Pride month, awesome right?! But also, as anyone with an internet presence will know, larger reach means more chances that someone may decide to attack your work, especially if you are a member of, or posting about, marginalised communities. Why am I sharing these divisive, angry and frankly untrue comments? Because they remind us of why LGBTQ+ Pride exists. Because this, right here, are the attitudes and ideas which populate parts of the world so readily that those who hold them feel no need to restrain or question the harm they are causing. We have to do better, and we have to keep going. #DEI #PrideMonth #LGBTQ #Pride2024
