A Candid Conversation: LGBT Issues in the Profession from the Straight Perspective

This workshop will engage both distinguished panelists and audience members to discuss the needs of LGBT lawyers and LGBT Diversity initiatives from the perspective of our straight allies. The panel will focus on the importance of creating an inclusive work environment, the importance of individuality in the workplace, successes and failures in LGBT diversity initiatives and marketing LGBT diversity. The participants will answer provocative questions from a straight perspective such as “How gay is ‘too gay’?”; “How do transgender issues fit into the broader diversity picture?” and “When is it inappropriate to utilize LGBT attorneys in marketing your organization’s diversity efforts?”
