Happy Pride Month! 🌈 As we celebrate, let's focus on the best ways to support the LGBTQ+ community: Do's: ✅ Support LGBTQ+ Initiatives Year-Round: Ensure that your support for the LGBTQ+ community extends beyond Pride Month. Implement inclusive policies and practices throughout the year. ✅ Educate and Train Employees: Provide training sessions on LGBTQ+ issues and inclusivity to educate employees and create a more understanding and supportive workplace. ✅ Partner with LGBTQ+ Organizations: Collaborate with LGBTQ+ organizations for events, sponsorships, and initiatives. This helps amplify their voices and shows genuine support. ✅ Showcase Diverse Voices: Highlight stories and contributions from LGBTQ+ employees and leaders within your organization. Ensure diverse representation in your campaigns and messaging. ✅ Celebrate Internally and Externally: Organize internal events and activities to celebrate Pride Month and promote inclusivity within your organization. Share your support and initiatives on social media and other external platforms. Don'ts: ❌ Avoid Rainbow-Washing: Don't use Pride Month solely for marketing purposes without making meaningful contributions to the LGBTQ+ community. Ensure your support is genuine and backed by action. ❌ Don't Tokenize: Avoid using LGBTQ+ individuals or symbols as mere tokens in your campaigns. Ensure their inclusion is respectful and meaningful, and not just for show. ❌ Ignore Feedback: Pay attention to feedback from LGBTQ+ employees and customers. Use their insights to improve your policies and practices. ❌ Avoid Stereotypes: Ensure your campaigns and messaging do not perpetuate stereotypes about the LGBTQ+ community. Promote diverse and authentic representations. ❌ Don't Be Silent: Silence can be perceived as a lack of support. Make a clear, visible stand for LGBTQ+ rights and equality, and back it up with concrete actions and commitments. #PrideMonth #Allyship #InclusiveWorkplace #Pride2024 #PrideAtWork

E.L.F. BEAUTY calls out the lack of U.S. board diversity with their new campaign, "Change the Board Game." Their agency, OBERLAND, analyzed the names of nearly 37,000 board members of 4,429 publicly traded companies on the NYSE and Nasdaq. Of the male board members, 566 were named Richard, Rick, or Dick. Hispanic women numbered 283--or half of the men who happened to be named Dick. The study also found more Black women (806 total) and Asian women (774) than men named Dick, but by slim enough margins to still raise eyebrows. Other findings include that the average corporate board in America is 88 percent White. Its CEO explains that the new ad campaign is just one facet of the company's push to change corporate board composition. Learn more about the campaign here: https://hubs.la/Q02z7cS50 #DiversioDigest
