Are you an employee resource group lead/member?
Hi everyone! Long time reader, first time poster. I'm wondering if anyone here is a lead/member of any of their company's employee resource groups (or equivalent).I'm Chair of the Asians Employee Resource Group at Shopify, looking to find ways to support our community and be an ally to other ERGs, and I know other ERG leads here are looking to connect with other ERG leads at other companies. I'm curious about how you have been navigating the space, providing programming (including intersectional programming) and working with their diversity and inclusion/HR/exec sponsors.Happy to also connect privately via email at [email protected] :)
teresaman·Aug 20, 2020teresaman·Aug 20, 2020Would you be interested in connecting with someone I know who launched the asian pacific islander ERG @ Coinbase? Pretty sure he'd love to talk and jam out on ideas.
Macaspac·Aug 21, 2020Macaspac·Aug 21, 2020yes, that'd be amazing!
I'm in the process of trying to kick off the creation / establishment of ERGs at my current company, so I would love to chat!
At Grubhub We have an employee resource group for parents too. We are starting to think about how to make this more inclusive and supportive for women. I am a working mother and the pandemic had especially been hard for women in workforce.. I would invite you to also consider providing a space for working mothers. I would love to help out if you wanted to discuss more on how we have started to think of ways we can amplify our voices moreThis heartbreaking article on how women who are under represented have been hit the hardest during the pandemic.https://19thnews.org/2020/08/americas-first-female-recession/
