Beyond Pride: Our Commitment to the LGBTQ+ Community
As Pride Month nears its end, many companies will revert back to business-as-usual messaging, go back to their default logos, and wait till June of next year to resume their LGBTQ+ communications. While many businesses hope to be seen by LGBTQ+ customers and workers as inclusive through their Pride-focused communications, many community members are questioning whether corporate interests outweigh the sincerity of these efforts.
We want to affirm our year-round commitment to LGBTQ+ inclusivity.
At ThoughtExchange, we aspire to be a workplace that people from all walks of life can bring their full selves to and feel supported to thrive. We work hard to create a safe culture where folks of all genders, ages, ethnicities, cultures, abilities, sexual orientations, and life experiences want to join our team as the whole version of themselves.
Our Commitment
Our LGBTQ+ commitment is evergreen. Here are a few things that we’re doing to ensure that everyone on our team can feel included and supported at work:

Learning Together for Collective Growth
We recognize that there’s always room for us to learn and grow together and to break oppressive patterns that have kept marginalized employees at a disadvantage.
Showing up as a business beyond Pride Month will continue to be a key priority for us at ThoughtExchange. We’re committed to being a space where all LGBTQ+ individuals feel safe and respected, and to continue empowering customers and partners around the world to lead inclusive conversations. We encourage all businesses to keep the conversation going year-long to ensure that LGBTQ+ stakeholders’ voices are truly and equitably heard and accounted for.
