Friends and Allies: Engaging, Linking and Leveraging for your BRG

Thursday, October 8, 2015 at 10:00 AM–11:30 AM CDT
Coronado A
Workshop Description

The Friends and Allies workshop will focus on how we can recognize the ally in everyone, straight and LGBTQ, and how we can foster a fully inclusive professional environment. Join representatives from Thomson Reuters, EY and Wells Fargo as we discuss the ways in which we can be allies not only for those with different backgrounds, but also within our own community. We will identify what the role of an ally is - beyond signing up to be on a mailing list or attending functions. We will discuss when/how to act and react to situations, how to effectively and sensitively communicate key messages, and hear personal stories of the impact that being an active “Out” ally can ultimately have on all of us.
