Your Guide to Successfully Navigating Summit
We are in a moment when the voices and actions of a few are attempting to dim the light and progress of an entire movement. And while it may seem overwhelming, we must remember our potential, our strength, and our value. In times of adversity, doubt, and challenge, Queer joy and resilience will always outshine and persevere.
Through the Out & Equal Workplace Summit and our theme of “Illuminate”, we will harness, nurture, and grow the light that resides within us all. We will remind our collective community and the world of the brilliance and power we hold. We will remind them that we are an unstoppable, radiant force.
