For employers today, gender identity and gender expression are top of mind. As the trend of transgender social inclusion continues, naturally oppressive forces push back and can strain workforce relationships. This timely session will focus on transgender inclusion and diversity in the workplace. Learn to distinguish among sex-based gender, gender identity and gender expression in a practical fashion that includes a discussion of the application and utilization of gender pronouns and how to respond to complaints and questions regarding gender expression and gender identity in the workplace.
