Yes, right. That goes without saying. But I’m not shying away from the month of rainbow logos. I love seeing retweets/posts/my feed filled with rainbow washing. The anger of right wing conservatives being overwhelmed by rainbows, athletes and fans with rainbows. Cans and bottles and food lining the grocery story with rainbows. I know it could be more. I know it should be authentic. But I love a month of not being able to escape the rainbow. And a little part of me sees it as a manifestation of the fact we are everywhere. You can’t hide from or ignore.

(Maybe) an unpopular opinion. I love it. I love the rainbows and the logos and the brands. I love it all.

Oh I absolutely love it too, as you pointed out, making it inescapable for the close minded a-holes, as well as just seeing a general push for acceptance even on the corporate level, is the least I can appreciate even if they’re not going to do anything materially meaningful

I’d also love it if brands were genuine about their support for LGBTQI+ and didn’t jump on a bandwagon for a month and then disappear for another 12 months.

I hear you! I do love seeing the rainbows 🌈 as well!

This is a safe, judgement-free,anonymous forum for seniors, leads, managers, partners, & principals to ask questions & get support around workplace situations which may have a DE&I component. This is also a place where leaders can learn more about DE&I without fear of asking “the wrong” question or saying something which will get them labeled as a “racist” “ignorant” or “insensitive” in the workplace. If you are providing answers/info, be informative & kind to everyone who posts questions here.

What's the best course of action when you find yourself at a job that's far more chaotic than you assessed while interviewing? Upon starting this job a couple of weeks ago, I discovered between the time I interviewed and my start date they had hired a new CEO, laid off all of their off-shore teams, changed my position to a new hiring manager, and added an on-call rotation to all engineering teams. None of this showed up in my research of the company or my interviews.

Hi! First time working with a larger company - suggestions on handling pronouns at work?

I’ve worked with smaller agencies where it was easier to bring up. Now I’m on a larger team, talking to/referencing people I’ve never met. I’m less concerned about my own pronouns and more concerned about how to make sure I’m using the correct pronouns for the people I work with.

I’ve been structuring sentences to avoid gender specific pronouns but would love to hear suggestions. Thanks!

Do you feel, as members of our community in advertising (a privilege we share in having a voice in media but also cultural persuasion) that you should lean into brands taking advantage of the opportunity to capitalize on our community or steer them away from that but also refocus their minds to a more long term diverse creative solution?
