Episode Synopsis

When it comes to interacting with trans and non-binary individuals there is a considerable amount of fear around getting it wrong. In this episode, host, Aby Hawker (she/her), is joined by the inimitable Thea Bardot (they/she), Thunder and CEO of Lightning Travel Recruitment. The pair use a recent example to provide guidance on how companies can navigate the situation when they do get it wrong and how showing vulnerability is key to making amends.

1. Say you are sorry and mean it!
2. Educate yourself and understand what you’ve done wrong
3. Be vulnerable admit your limitations
4. Pledge to do better and act on that pledge by e.g donating to charity and educating yourself and your team members
