❌ What managers get wrong about supporting LGBTQ+ employees


Managers are the #1 driver of psychological safety, yet in small and medium-sized businesses, they’re often undertrained for today’s political climate. With anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric at an all-time high, the stakes are real.

How do you support LGBTQ+ folx on your team when many players are actively campaigning for their erasure? How do you repair trust when something goes wrong? What do you do when a manager’s own discomfort or uncertainty gets in the way?

This Thursday, June 18—in just two days—I’m partnering with TroopHR to answer these critical questions. I’ll be joined by Rex Wilde, a leading expert in transgender inclusion, and Shimina Harris, a nonprofit HR and operations leader who has navigated this work in real time.

We’ll be sharing practical strategies you can immediately apply to your workplace. Join us to learn:

✅ What good manager support actually looks like, from policy through daily behavior and language

✅ How to equip frontline leaders with practical tools when the political climate is hostile

✅ What HR’s role is when something goes wrong, and how to repair trust

…and so much more!

👉🏼 Register now for this important conversation. We start on Thursday at 8 AM ET.

See you on-screen this Thursday!
