Corporate Partnerships

GenderCool engages in six powerful ways with our partners, helping to move them from “envisioning progress” to “making progress happen.”

Events

Dynamic, thought-provoking and entirely fun speaking engagements led by our Champions! Fresh, intersectional opportunities for collaboration across Employee Resource Groups, DEI, HR and Corporate Social Responsibility.

Reverse Mentorship Program

Access to employment can completely change the life of a young person—of ALL people—in marginalized communities.

We sensed an organic evolution in the work GenderCool was doing. Our partners consistently asked to engage more with our Champions, wanting to offer additional opportunities for personal growth and development, both for our Champions and their own employees.

In 2020, we launched the GenderCool Champion Reverse Mentorship Program with our amazing partner Intuit. The program has made a profound and measurable impact, and we are now rolling it out to our network.

DEI/HR Consulting

  • Helping to create best practices for inclusivity in the workplace.
  • Evolving language used in talent acquisition and retention programming
  • Engaging diverse groups of employees at all levels with meaningful, comfortable conversations
  • Providing input and guidance on best ways to evolve benefits for transgender employees and parent employees of transgender and non-binary children

Public Engagements

Our partners are taking action internally to make their workplaces more inclusive. They aren’t just talking. They are doing. With this context, we strategically partner to create external content that celebrates that progress, helping to raise awareness among their key stakeholders about this important work.

Concierge Support for Parent Employees of Transgender and Non-Binary Children

GenderCool is highly networked across all critical areas of support and decision making for families and their amazing young people. We offer one-on-one support in the areas of:

  • Inclusive school policy
  • Affirming healthcare partners
  • Positive parent-to-parent communication
  • Positive connections for employee’s children with other young people to build community

“I was frozen with fear and did not know even know how to take a first step. I didn’t even know I could choose how to feel about my kid’s transition. But you changed that. I had the conversations you encouraged me to have with our family members, and the massive anxiety I had is gone.”

“You helped me change my inner dialogue and that is huge…So far, you have been the most helpful and caring voice I have found. I can’t thank you enough.”

Multilingual Speaking Engagements
