ARTICLE WORTH READING! On Forbes, “What’s The Purpose?” This Forbes article delves into the significance of defining purpose in leadership and its impact on driving success in organizations. It explores how aligning personal and organizational purpose can lead to increased motivation, engagement, and overall performance. We talk A LOT about this in our online LGBTQ+ & Ally program “The L.I.O.N.S. Program” … especially on our module on “Authenticity” and how effective leaders work within organizations that align with their own personal values. It’s hard to do your best when you’re at internal conflict with the values of where you work. https://lnkd.in/ewM__7tS #lgbtqa #diversity #inclusion #thegayleadershipdude #leadership

ARTICLE WORTH READING! “Your Queer Career®: Work Advice from ‘The Gay Leadership Dude’” on Watermark. “Hello ‘Gay Leadership Dude®’ I’m hoping you can help me. I work for a smaller organization that doesn’t have any real diversity, equity and inclusion efforts (there’s a few things here and there). Some of us want to get resources to bring more formalized DE&I programming to our workplace, specifically get funding for an LGBTQ(+) employee resource group, but need to sell it to our senior leaders. They know this should be a strategic focus, but we need to share the big ‘why’ to them. Any thoughts?” ~ ERG Adam & Steve Read the article to see what advice I suggested. https://lnkd.in/ebHrCn6D #lgbtqa #diversity #inclusion #thegayleadershipdude #leadership

A great article from my colleague Dr Rob Sayers-Brown, drawing from his research on leadership development for LGBTQ+ leaders. Check out his first post, with more insights to follow in the coming weeks 👇
💭 “Being an inclusive workplace isn’t a destination, it’s a journey of moving parts...” In our first instalment of our series celebrating LGBT+ History Month, Dr Rob S. has delved deep into his research on leadership development for LGBTQ+ leaders. In this post, he explores why leadership development matters for LGBTQ+ leaders, outlining the ‘collision’ of an individual’s LGBTQ+ identity and their leadership, and the three themes produced by the collision that could help support development. ❤️💛🧡💚💙💜 #LGBTHistoryMonth #LQBTQLeadership #LeadershipDevelopment #LearningandDevelopment

ARTICLE WORTH READING! On Harvard University Department of Continuing Education, “LGBTQ+ Leadership: How to Honor Your Identity in the Workplace” This article sheds light on a 2021 McKinsey study that shows LGBTQ+ employees often lack role models who share their identity. It provides valuable insights into why LGBTQ+ Leadership Matters and how LGBTQ+ Leadership Benefits Everyone. It highlights the importance of taking the initiative as a leader to foster a more welcoming space for both yourself and your colleagues that can ultimately lead to positive results. It’s part of a lot of great (but sometimes disappointing) research on LGBTQ+ experiences in the workplace that I’m happy to share. https://lnkd.in/gHtkYMmN #lgbtqa #diversity #inclusion #thegayleadershipdude #leadership

ARTICLE THROWBACK! On RVA Mag, I wrote, “Facing Inclusivity Pushback In The Workplace: Should You Fight Or Fly?” Should You Even TRY to Change the Org Culture? Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should. As an LGBTQ+ Leader, you have the skill and the passion to help facilitate change. But should you? That’s a wonderful and really thought-provoking question. And my first reaction: focus on that during your mindfulness exercises (covered in the following chapter). Seriously; if your organizational culture is really uninclusive to our LGBTQ+ brothers and sisters, that’s a lot of work in addition to your day job. Ask yourself: do you want to fight or fly from the challenge? https://lnkd.in/eUAfbU7H . #lgbtqa #diversity #inclusion #thegayleadershipdude #leadership
