Dr.S.Jeyalakshmi, Ms.Shivani Rajendran
LGBTQ+ inclusion in the corporate environment has rapidly become an essential factor in business success. With diverse stakeholders, changing societal values, and a new generation of employees and consumers who prioritize inclusivity, companies that integrate LGBTQ+ inclusion into their strategy are more likely to experience sustained growth. This paper examines the business case for LGBTQ+ inclusion, its impact on corporate performance, and provides a practical framework that organizations can implement to ensure a supportive, diverse, and innovative work environment. Furthermore, it identifies the challenges that companies may face in this journey and suggests mitigation strategies to achieve a comprehensive inclusivity model.
