Pedro and Ludivine from PwC Luxembourg talk about workplace inclusivity as part of this week's PwC People Pulse. They join us to discuss 'Shine', PwC’s LGBTQ+ affinity network, and 'Walk the Talk' an initiative aimed at fostering real action in corporate allyship.
Pedro, a deputy leader of 'Shine', and Ludivine, a 'Shine' member, share their personal journeys and explain how 'Shine' supports LGBTQ+ employees and allies. From networking events and educational workshops to company-wide initiatives, they say that the network plays a key role in making workplaces more inclusive and welcoming.
Beyond PwC, 'Walk the Talk' brings together over 30 companies in Luxembourg committed to LGBTQ+ inclusion. The upcoming Walk the Talk event, happening on March 25th, focuses on "Family at Heart" and will feature a keynote speech by MEP Marc Angel, a panel discussion on rainbow families in the workplace, and a networking cocktail with live entertainment.
The discussion also covers the role of allies in creating a supportive work environment, the importance of taking real action beyond symbolic gestures, and the risks of "rainbow-washing" in corporate culture.
