About the Event

Please join us in welcoming Ellen Lichtenstein, Jordan Reck, Louie Lugo and Bobbi Himes for this special event to honor the LGBTQ community and its allies.

Today's workplace is enhancing opportunities for work/life harmony, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, hybrid and remote work, better mental health and total rewards. The workforce is demanding more, and companies are pivoting to allow for more true equality and inclusion.

So, how does this affect you?

In this special event, we will dig deep into how professionals can own their own development while being their authentic selves, why gender identity and pronouns are important, and provide details on how you can be an empowered advocate/ally and stand with others who might be different from you.

Takeaways:

  • Tips and actions on how to own your professional development while being your authentic self
  • Insight and understanding about gender identity and pronouns and how to honor this in the workplace
  • Actions on how to stand with others through allyship, break microaggressions, and diplomatically challenge the status quo

All are welcomed and encouraged to attend this important event.
