How Organisations Fail Their LGBT Employees



Does your organisation treat LGBT employees the same as heterosexual staff?

Do you LGBT employees feel safe and able to be themselves at work?

What are the mental health issues facing LGBT employees?

What is the cost to your business of poor LGBT inclusion?

Is there conflict in your organisation causing LGBT discrimination?


“Profit is King!” That is how being successful in the business world can be seen. But frequently that comes at a price as companies look to maximise their income, reduce costs, and satisfy shareholders.

Organisations today are focusing on efficiency, productivity, profit, service improvements, and customers. Many of them ignore the benefits of a diverse workforce. Some ignore the basics and fail to comply with legislation

There are some organisations who believe they are diverse; feel they are inclusive; and consider they are leaders on this area resulting in diversity of people, diversity of thought, and cultural intelligence.

The cost of achieving this can create conflict in organisations whilst alienating employees and customers.

Do you know what you can do differently with LGBT employees to make your organisation more successful and reduce conflict?

This seminar will be an interactive session where you will discover that it is possible to change the way you do things in small and simple ways. In this session we will explore the challenges, issues and opportunities faced by both employers and employees in relation to LGBT in the workplace. We will discuss the challenges of confidentiality and stigma considering actions to support LGBT employees.

Attending this session will provide you with some valuable thinking time on developing yourself and your organisation to achieve better outcomes.

When you leave this session, you will have some golden nuggets to start you on this journey that will position you to take small and simple and steps to create an inclusive LGBT culture.

Attendees are invited to stay for the evening event - Adam Kashmiry: Growing Up Transgender in Egypt
