Pride Month

June is Pride Month, and it’s a great time to consider what you are doing to foster a sense of belonging for all employees. Every organization is unique and it’s up to leaders to decide how to incorporate diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), in a way that honors your unique workplace.

But what if you don’t have a DEI program? My advice is to do something. Anything is better than nothing! Mention pride month at a meeting. Bring in a rainbow dessert on a Friday. Put up some fun pride decorations in your office. Those are a few simple ideas. It’s ok to start small. Before you know it, DEI becomes a part of your everyday work culture. And that, after all is the goal!
