I wish everyone a Happy Pride Month. At this time in our history it is as important as ever for employers to recognize that organizational diversity leads to more informed decision making, a cohesive workforce and better economic outcomes.
As we celebrate Pride Month I encourage you to educate and bring along those who oppose the tenants of this month long celebration; inclusion, acceptance, joy, belonging, diversity. These projectors of supposed 'virtue', who exist in most organizations and societies and who we all unfortunately have contact with, are the creators of exclusionary constructs that want to control you, maintain power and exert self-righteous mores rather than partner, grow and develop you as an individual. They exist to the detriment of social, corporate and organizational cohesion. Projected virtue in this sense is merely the marriage of caution and hypocrisy. Speak openly about this hypocrisy to reveal to them and the world that diversity is the reality of the human condition, even when they don't want to see it. We are more successful as a species and a society when the full rainbow is seen!
