5 things / Out & Equal Workplace Summit
I was at the Out & Equal Workplace Summit last week representing the Chicagoland chapter (I'm co-chair), and heard Adam Rippon speak. I was impressed by the Olympic medalist who reminded us, "We all have a voice, no matter how big or how small it may feel. Even if one person is listening, they are still listening."
I think it's an important message in a time where our world feels so divided. I'd love to hear: how are you are using your voice for the greater good?
Here are a few things you might find interesting this month:
the 5 Ally Actions weekly newsletter: bite size tips for being a better ally
TransTech Social Enterprises: an incubator with a focus on economically empowering the Trans community. Their work is deeply inspiring.
Amazon secretly developed an artificial intelligence recruiting tool that turned out to be deeply biased against women candidates. They scrapped it. This is an interesting case study.
We're all doing good work, and I hope you continue to stay inspired. Thank you for being a passionate ally and advocate for inclusion.
