Only three out of the five hundred Fortune 500 CEOs are LGBTQ+ people. This is just one example of the rainbow ceiling that holds LGBTQ+ people back at work. Ahead of Pride Month, author Layla McCay will share insights from her new book, ‘Breaking the Rainbow Ceiling: How LGBTQ+ people can thrive and succeed at work’. Bringing the latest research to life with the personal stories and advice of LGBTQ+ trailblazers from CEOs to Ambassadors, the author will reveal some of the unexpected differences that cause LGBTQ+ people to be underrepresented in senior positions in the UK and all over the world – and what to do about it. 

This event is the official launch for the book and copies will be available for purchase.

    Great event as always, wasn't keen on the interviewer but Cathi's content was excellent and provided insight into a fascinating period.
