What you'll learn:
- Decide if, when, and how to come out at work
- Read your workplace and assess what’s safe, supportive, or risky
- Handle microaggressions, bias, or uncomfortable situations in real time
- Navigate conversations with coworkers, managers, or clients
- Set boundaries while still building trust and professional relationships
- Make career decisions that align with your identity and long-term goals
- Recognize when to stay, adapt, or move on from a workplace
Being LGBTQ+ at work can mean constantly making decisions most people never think about.
When to speak up.
Who to trust.
How much to share.
And what to do when something feels off.
This course helps you think through those decisions with clear, practical guidance you can actually use.
Instead of vague advice, you’ll work through real workplace situations and how to handle them in a way that fits your goals, your comfort level, and your environment. You’ll explore situations like:
Deciding whether, when, and how to come out at work
Reading your workplace and understanding what’s safe or not
Handling microaggressions, bias, or uncomfortable moments
Navigating conversations with coworkers, managers, or clients
Building trust while protecting your own boundaries
Figuring out what success at work looks like for you
You’ll also get context that helps you understand why these situations exist in the first place — including workplace norms, expectations, and the realities many LGBTQ+ employees face. You’ll walk away with:
A clearer way to think through difficult workplace decisions
Practical options for handling real situations, not just theory
More confidence in conversations that feel uncertain or high-stakes
A better sense of how to protect your boundaries while still growing professionally
Tools to build a version of work that actually works for you
This isn’t about telling you what to do. It’s about helping you make better decisions in situations that don’t come with clear answers.
If you’re tired of vague advice and want something real, this course gives you a place to start.
