How much of yourself do you feel like you can bring to work? This is a question many 2SLGBTQIA+ professionals and job seekers ask of themselves. Join Pride at Work Canada for an evening of networking and connecting with diversity, equity, and inclusion leaders, 2SLGBTQIA+ professionals and job seekers in Calgary at Norton Rose Fulbright. The evening’s festivities will include a panel discussion on the challenges around ‘uncovering’ at work followed by a lively networking reception.
