EMBRACE • EDUCATE • EMPOWER • LOVE

CONSULTING

Is your company pro-LGBTQ but uncertain how to navigate the current climate? There are a lot of moving pieces, but it is possible to:

  • Be an ally (hint: it goes way beyond selling pride merch and flying pride flags)

  • Stand in solidarity with LGBTQ people while keeping your employees safe

  • Create an effective crisis management plan

  • Support your LGBTQ employees and create an inclusive work environment

  • Educate and empower all of your employees

  • Get involved on a national scale to make a difference

You Have Options

There are many paths to success. We'll start big picture and narrow down to the smallest detail. I'll ask A LOT of questions...and then a lot more. I want your input! This isn't about me coming in and telling you how to change. This is a partnership that will ultimately create a beautifully diverse and inclusive environment where your employees can thrive. It will produce engaging, empowering, and enticing messaging for your customers. And, it will result in a healthy bottom line that C-Suite and shareholders alike will love.

In addition to full package consulting, you have the option to enhance one specific area at a time. Here are some examples:

Internally

  • Educational Workshops for specific departments

  • On Demand Educational series to offer to entire company

  • Become a sponsor for Chrysalis and let those actions show your solidarity

Externally

  • Messaging around allyship

  • Crisis Management plan
