Several strategies for creating inclusive cultures for TGNC (transgender and gender nonconforming) employees.

found that 1.6% of U.S. adults identify as transgender or nonbinary. That share rises to 5.1% among adults under the age of 30. The survey also found that 42% of U.S. adults know somebody who is transgender.has demonstrated that inclusive workforces are more productive and more innovative. They also have more ambitious employees and lower attrition.TGNC employees who are out at work feel more authentic , professional , and innovative than those who are not out.

This commitment to TGNC inclusion should be part of the C-suite’s overall accountability for achieving diversity and inclusion goals and for identifying and promoting high-potential employees from diverse backgrounds. Top executives should be encouraging the creation of pipelines of diverse talent, including TGNC employees, to move up in the organization. They should stay on top of diversity and inclusion metrics so that they know what parts of the organization are hitting or missing targets.

In recruiting and onboarding, small moves can pay big dividends. Companies can assign buddies who can explain TGNC culture and experience to candidates. They can also sponsor or host recruiting events in which TGNC employees play prominent roles and create recruiting material aimed at TGNC candidates.

to have people at work pushing to be identified according to their sexual tastes and preferences is primitive, very poor culturally. To see HBR authors evidencing their pronouns in their biographies is just appalling. I'm so sad to see an once important institution as Harvard…

I do not bring my 'full and authentic self' to the workplace. I come to do my job, in a non-disruptive way.

I hope companies are protecting women’s rights.

Who brings their full authentic self to work? This would be a nightmare.

There you go. Expecting the world to adjust the new order!!

Is victimization always necessary? Let everyone be including the straight people pls.

They have a problem. I am not trans - I have private spaces and friendly spaces to express my real self. At work, I present myself as much as they want me to be, dressed as they want, do as they want, I work for them, they don't work for me. I now work on my own.

No they’re not. Drama queens gonna be drama queens though 🤷
