Happy LGBTQ+ Pride Month! Jayzen is excited to have Brad Baumoel as his guest on the show. After thirty years in banking at JPMorgan Chase, Brad moved into an amazing role with the firm that aligns his professional leadership talents with his passion for his community. As the Global Head of LGBT+ Affairs, Brad leads the firm’s center of excellence that develops executives who identify as LGBT+, helping to further their careers by bringing their full selves to work everyday.
In celebration of Pride Month, the Lead With Your Brand!™ Podcast has partnered with Out & Equal Workplace Advocates, the premier organization working exclusively on LGBTQ+ workplace equality. Each week in June, we’ll be featuring an out leader each with an amazing career story to share. In addition, we’ve assembled an entire collection of shows with LGBTQ+ guests from the past three seasons, including two special roundtable episodes where we explore issues around the trans experience and intersectionality of race and LGBTQ+ in the workplace. The team at Out & Equal has created free downloadable discussion guides, so we encourage you to use the podcast as a virtual “book club” with your ERG or group of friends. Listen to the episodes, download the discussion guides and schedule your group discussion! Check out www.leadwithyourbrand.com/pride for more information.
Happy Pride!
