80% of LGBTQIA+ talent are comfortable being out at work. That’s up 36% since 2016. This is great progress but we are still not where we need to be. We are excited to sit down with RC Whitehouse, SVP of Talent EMEA & NA at MiQ to discuss ways that LGBTQIA+ talent can truly bring their whole selves to work…and how their companies can help them do it. During this fireside chat, you’ll discover strategies for creating inclusive environments where everyone can thrive.
