How can allies support LGBT+ colleagues?
At A&M, we’re committed to creating an inclusive workplace where everyone can be their authentic selves. Employees can contribute to building an inclusive workplace that values diversity and supports the LGBT+ community by being active allies.
Global Pride Month Celebrations
To celebrate Pride Month, our global offices have engaged in various initiatives to honor our LGBT+ community, raise awareness of LGBT+ history, and promote inclusivity. A&M colleagues joined Pride Parades across the US, Europe, Brazil, and India and celebrated locally through networking events and giving-back initiatives. Our employee resource groups also organized workshops and training sessions to educate A&M employees on LGBT+ issues and foster workplace inclusion.
LGBT+ Inclusion at A&M
Pride extends beyond a single month. All year round, we are dedicated to creating an inclusive workplace by addressing the challenges and discrimination faced by the LGBT+ community, educating our colleagues, and providing ongoing support through our employee resource groups.
