In life and in business, celebrating milestones and remembering key moments fuels our progress and enriches our journey. Today, we honor Juneteenth, a day that commemorates the end of slavery in the United States and a momentous milestone in our collective history. Juneteenth reminds us of the importance of freedom, equality, and the continuous fight for justice. It’s a time to reflect on the resilience and strength of those who fought for these values and recognize how far we’ve come while acknowledging the work still ahead. This day is a testament to the power of change and the ongoing journey toward a more inclusive society. Let's take this opportunity to educate ourselves, understand the complex dynamics of injustice and privilege, and foster a workplace where diversity and inclusion are at the forefront. Together, we can create an environment that champions equality and respect for all. #Juneteenth #Diversity #Equity #Inclusion

We can't help but see comments on social media protesting the need for Pride month, or the focus it gets throughout June. Here are just a few statistics that cannot be ignored: 😓 64% of LGBT+ people have experienced violence or abuse 🏳️🌈 88% of transgender people do not report hate crimes they experience 👥 35% of LGBT employees have hidden their sexuality or identity at work for fear of discrimination 😰 41% of employees who identify as transgender, non-binary or another gender have experienced bullying, discrimination or harassment at work (from our own research) Acknowledging this data isn't about detracting from any of the other issues your organisation is facing, it's about creating change where change is needed. In this webinar Kenya Peters and Vicki Baars sat down to discuss what pride month Should and Should Not look like. Let us know your thoughts https://lnkd.in/ecXDqUeA

Inclusivity is more than just a term—it’s a challenge the Indigenous community has faced for years. As an Indigenous girl, I cherished my long hair, wore no makeup, and liked to wear a pair of earrings my mother gave me. I vividly remember my boss telling me to change my hairstyle and that my earrings belonged to a nightclub. Painful to hear, right? Since the '90s, I have witnessed leaders and bosses trying to change people's identities. This experience fuels my passion for advocating the truths that led to our reconciliation. I dream of a day when a person can show up looking exactly as she/he wants and be judged solely on her skills, not her appearance. I feel incredibly grateful and privileged to be in spaces where I can make a meaningful impact in these areas. My education in governance has empowered me to guide essential conversations toward inclusivity, though there is still much work to be done. I invite us all to play a part in our own spaces. This post encourages us to push for authenticity and truth in the workplace and embrace our true selves without guilt. The photo below is of Dana's Mild'id giving me my first language certificate of Smalgy'ax, and it reminds me that stories must be told. I would like to hear about your experiences regarding this topic as I also learn from each of you. #Inclusivity #Diversity #Authenticity #IndigenousCommunity #WorkplaceDiversity #DecolonizedGovernance #TruthAndReconciliation

Pride month is upon us and I would like to take a moment to address my thoughts of celebrating Pride this year. A year of violent conflicts, another year of nationalism on the rise all over the world and yet another year of segregation. For me Pride month matters as it highlights the existence and struggle of the LGBTQIA+ community around the globe. Some of us are privileged, some are not but we exist in all contexts and places. I am one of the privileged ones, I’m a white male in a fairly progressive country. That doesn’t mean that I’m fat and happy. I try to stay aware of my privilege and use my voice for the less privileged. 🌈 In an LGBTQIA+ context: as someone not struggling. 🌍 In a humanitarian context: as a westerner who lives a good life but knows what it’s like not feeling safe in all situations, what it feels like to be questioned and having to defend ones person. To gain the LGBTQIA+ communities trust in conflicts around the world we are often told what happens to people like us in other countries. And while that is horrible we do not want people to be murdered in our name or to protect us. We don’t want people to die for us to be accepted, that would make us terrorists. We just want to be accepted, plain and simple. You don’t need to love us, we don’t need to love you but we need to be able to coexist in a world of mutual respect but not necessarily in agreement. The world is diverse and it needs to be diverse. We are all human faced with the task of trying to save this planet from what we brought onto it. And that requires collaboration, coexistence and respect. An understanding of privilege and what is required from the privileged in order to help less fortunate groups around the world who often find them selves in that position due to our privilege. So to finish this post: My wish for this pride month is for acceptance and respect for everyone. Let's put our disagreements to the side and face the fact that we need to coexist to be able to move forward.

Ever noticed how companies go all-in on rainbow logos during Pride Month, but come July 1st, it's back to business as usual? 🌈💼 Let's talk about the real motivation behind this colorful charade. Is it genuine support or just another marketing ploy? I explore how some brands flaunt their Pride in accepting markets while conveniently forgetting about it in regions where it could affect their bottom line. It's a curious case of virtue signaling that raises questions about true commitment to LGBTQ+ rights. 🏳️🌈💼 Let’s challenge these companies to put their principles before profits and stand for something meaningful all year round. Join the conversation and read the full article below! 🏳️🌈 #diversity #LGBTQ #csr #marketing #pridemonth #diversityandinclusion #capitalism
