Business Impact

  1. Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) efforts directly correlate with the LGBTQ+ employee productivity, engagement, and overall effectiveness resulting in lower turnover and higher retention, also while attracting new business opportunities.
  2. Companies that adopt LGBTQ+ inclusive practices tend to improve their financial standing and do better than companies that do not adopt them.
  3. Workplaces that empower their employees to be their authentic selves at work curate a safe and supportive environment for everyone to perform at their fullest potential resulting in more overall successful business outcomes.
