Establish a powerful ‘reason for being’…think campaign, not champagne!
What are your organisation’s priorities and how can an LGBT group help
achieve them.
Don’t be insular – work with other ERGs (Parenting groups, Faith groups,
Disability groups). Work with D&I / HR on general curriculum inclusion.
Don’t try to boil the ocean – participate in Stonewall’s Equality Index and
focus on year-on-year improvement, mixing ‘easy-wins’ with longer term
‘chipping’.
Know where you can go for help
externally, doesn’t have to cost any
money!
