What Real Inclusion Looks Like at Work When You’re LGBTQ+ 7 | 23

Hello, everybody. Welcome to the Radical Candor Podcast. I'm Kim Scott. I'm Amy Sandler, your host for the Radical Candor Podcast, and today is a very special day. Kim, you are going to be taking on the hosting role and we're going to be having a conversation about being out in the workplace.

It felt really important for me to speak up about being out at work and I tend to be a more private person, but I felt given recent headlines and I I got an email recently from HR Dive and I'll just quote a couple of the statistics. From HR Dive. It said nearly half of the employees surveyed in a recent glass door pole feared being out at work would harm their careers and either they would lose their job, be skipped over for a promotion, or not be chosen for a project. There was some other data from the Society for Human Resource Management, SHERM. 40% of LGBTQ plus workers haven't shared their identity at work.

One in five said they thought doing so would affect their chances of being promoted. And I realized that I have the ability to maybe help with that. And so I I really want to focus on how To anyone listening, if me sharing my story can help you or help someone you're working with, then that's what matters most to me. So that's really my intention for for this session, Kim.
