I love that we support and celebrate inclusiveness and diversity, but honestly, I have to speak from my perspective as a CEO. I often wonder if it's me, the person, or my mindset as a Leader and a CEO. I believe the only time we will be inclusive is when no one has to wave a flag or wear a badge or a wristband. Same for disabilities, ethnicity, or colour. People talk crap even when wanting not to... 'Oh, I don't see colour...' said a mate of mine recently. 'Well, get an eye test, pal; he is as black as the Ace of Spades, ' I replied. Oh no, that's not what I meant said he. Yes, it wasn't, but why do you even have to state that? Why does it need to be said? Just be his mate. I guess what I am trying, and probably failing and inviting a load of snowflakes to pile in, is people are people. When we get to a stage where none of this is a subject matter, that is what I call inclusive. As for diversity, well, God decided that already. What's it got to do with us? There are some things I am well known for by my friends and family. One is that I have absolutely no 'Gay-Dar'. One of my good pals from past work life is now a woman, and considering our personal backgrounds, I find it extremely difficult to get my head around but equally not at all difficult to accept. It's her life; she can do what she likes that makes her happy. I couldn't give a monkey's what she chooses to do; she's still the same person as when I first knew her, apart from the blindingly obvious and having a far less deep voice. I think the longer this need to recognise everyone with their own special symbols and the like, actually the further away we get from where people aspire to be. If someone is Gay, Bi-, Straight whatever, It doesn't occur to me at all, and I am equally not the slightest bit bothered when I become aware of it. What I care about is simple. In work, are you a good colleague, a grafter who is aware that the customer pays us all and values them? In my social life, are you good company, do we share values and interests, or are you really annoying or boring? Those things are the only things that matter, or should matter. When we can take pride in not needing symbols or events like pride flag and month then and only then in my humble opinion do I reckon we have cracked it. Until then though, Happy Pride Month to everyone who feels represented and that it gives them belief they can live happily and openly. I hope I am wrong and that actually it is empowering and breaking down barriers without what I like to call 'Idiots' who haven't got the brains they were born with being like scared rabbits towards anyone who is different from them. Until then, please call out all 'Idiots' instead of looking at your feet or looking away. Failing to discourage, by its very definition, lacks courage, and that's the only difference; people of Pride Month have had to show courage; the least you can do is make that inclusive by showing your own where they do get abused by the Idiots.
Happy Pride Month!🌈 At GovData, we're proud to celebrate the diversity of the LGBTQ+ community and are committed to fostering an inclusive environment. How are you celebrating Pride Month? #pridemonth

Always Just a Call Away! Preparing for a mortgage? Know your options and speak with a loan officer, like me, who will listen and provide options tailored to you and your finances and wishes, then you make the decisions. The worst thing one can do is find a home and then get pre-approved with the risk of finding out you don’t qualify for some minor reason and can’t currently make an offer. 💪💰 Knowing your buying power is the key to finding your dream home. Get pre-approved for your mortgage today and start your house hunt on the right foot. With same-day service, including weekends!. I'm here to help you every step of the way 7 days a week and always take calls after 5 PM. Know your options and realize your dreams with your Florida Lender. 🌴🌞 #thehelpfulLO #home #house #listreports #homeowner #househunting #realestate #mortgage #loanofficer #investment #finances Don't forget to ask me about the FAIRWAY ADVANTAGE, which gives you the highest buying power and loan approval without a property attached. It's the perfect way to start your search with your realtor, knowing you have an underwritten loan approval before you start looking for your next or new home and can close fast! Because you are already fully pre-approved by an underwriter, before finding a home. That is the Fairway Advantage! Know your options and realize your dreams with your Florida Lender. 🌴🌞 #thehelpfulLO #home #house #listreports #homeowner #househunting #realestate #mortgage #loanofficer #investment #finances

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.
#HappyPrideMonth! 🏳️🌈 At Acosta Group, we celebrate the vibrant diversity of our LGBTQ+ community. As we celebrate #PrideMonth, let's continue to deepen our understanding, challenge biases, and foster an inclusive workplace where everyone feels seen, valued, and respected. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

In a landscape where LGBTQ+ individuals in the United States face numerous hurdles, one critical concern often remains overlooked: the underappreciation of LGBTQ+ community centers. Despite being essential lifelines, these centers frequently operate in the shadows, their profound impact on LGBTQ+ lives often unacknowledged. Denise Spivak, CEO of CenterLink, brings attention to this pressing issue, highlighting the immense value these centers hold. She underscores their role as crucial support networks for struggling LGBTQ+ youth, offering services like affirmative healthcare and fostering a strong sense of belonging. Spivak's insights emphasize the urgency of recognizing and supporting these centers, ensuring that their invaluable contributions to the LGBTQ+ community are fully recognized and valued. To gain a deeper understanding of this pivotal topic, read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/eiQ3xUaV . Let's come together to ensure these centers receive the acknowledgment and support they truly deserve.

🌈 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 🏳️🌈
🌈 Today, on International Coming Out Day, Maas-Riva B.V. proudly stands with the LGBTQ+ community. 🏳️🌈 We believe that every individual deserves respect, support, and the freedom to be their authentic selves. 🌟 Happy International Coming Out Day from Maas-Riva B.V.! 🌈 #ComingOutDay #DiversityandInclusion #MaasRivaBV
