A Radio Show on GLBT Employees

Sunday, July 17th, 2011

Recently, on CaribHR Radio, I hosted a very challenging but satisfying show on the ways in which Human Resource Professionals can make the workplace more accepting of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender (GLBT) employees.

It was a tough one to do, as some HR professionals in the region honestly believe that GLBT’s have no place or role to play in their companies.

At the same, I was happy how this episode came out at the end, and it hit some important points that are best encountered before the fact, rather than after some damage has been done… listen in to the episode on July 5th, 2011 here, in the archives of CaribHR.Radio.

My first article in the Jamaica Sunday Gleaner came out a week ago: “Why We Aren’t Doing Enough About Jamaica’s Productivity.”

I’d love to hear your comments here on Chronicles as there will be follow-up articles to look at the problem in greater depth.
