Hi All,
I'm looking forward to seeing you all for our PNW Tessitura Community meeting on November 29th and also wanted to share with you an upcoming event hosted by the LGBTQIA+ Affinity Group. See details below!
Hi everyone!
The LGBTQIA+ Affinity Group is pleased to announce that we have secured Melissa Harris, Deputy Vice President of Strategic Partnerships for GLAAD to join us for a moderated session on Thursday, December 8th (North America)! We would love to extend the invite to all of you, and hope that you would help us spread the word to your groups about this exciting opportunity.
Melissa is a dynamic speaker, an experienced non-profit leader, and a champion for LGBTQIA+ issues on the national and international scene.
During this moderated session, Melissa would like to speak about LGBTQIA+ focused legislation, including the Respect for Marriage Act and Equality Act, as well as update us on her discussions with Senator Chuck Schumer on the future of LGBTQIA+ legislation. She will also speak about next steps on the national scene to cultivate belonging and inclusion in the workplace. Lastly, she has agreed to a Q&A at the end of the session, should we have time.
We will be working with Tessitura's DEAI committee to put together some questions for her, but we would also love to hear what kind of questions you might have. Please add yours to the discussion for this event below, and invite your friends and colleagues to join us. We want to make this event a success, and have a good turnout so that we can hope to have additional guests like Melissa in the future.
