Out & Equal is dedicated to helping LGBTQ people thrive at work, and to building inclusive workplace cultures that will attract, recruit and retain high-potential LGBTQ employees. For 25 years, Out & Equal has developed programming and learning opportunities centering the professional development needs of LGBTQ leaders at all career stages.
Investing in supporting LGBTQ leaders and in building strong LGBTQ leadership pipelines has a proven benefit, not just for those employees, but for the engagement, job satisfaction, and morale of their teams and, ultimately, for the strength of the entire organization.
