I love that we support and celebrate inclusiveness and diversity, but honestly, I have to speak from my perspective as a CEO. I often wonder if it's me, the person, or my mindset as a Leader and a CEO. I believe the only time we will be inclusive is when no one has to wave a flag or wear a badge or a wristband. Same for disabilities, ethnicity, or colour. People talk crap even when wanting not to... 'Oh, I don't see colour...' said a mate of mine recently. 'Well, get an eye test, pal; he is as black as the Ace of Spades, ' I replied. Oh no, that's not what I meant said he. Yes, it wasn't, but why do you even have to state that? Why does it need to be said? Just be his mate. I guess what I am trying, and probably failing and inviting a load of snowflakes to pile in, is people are people. When we get to a stage where none of this is a subject matter, that is what I call inclusive. As for diversity, well, God decided that already. What's it got to do with us? There are some things I am well known for by my friends and family. One is that I have absolutely no 'Gay-Dar'. One of my good pals from past work life is now a woman, and considering our personal backgrounds, I find it extremely difficult to get my head around but equally not at all difficult to accept. It's her life; she can do what she likes that makes her happy. I couldn't give a monkey's what she chooses to do; she's still the same person as when I first knew her, apart from the blindingly obvious and having a far less deep voice. I think the longer this need to recognise everyone with their own special symbols and the like, actually the further away we get from where people aspire to be. If someone is Gay, Bi-, Straight whatever, It doesn't occur to me at all, and I am equally not the slightest bit bothered when I become aware of it. What I care about is simple. In work, are you a good colleague, a grafter who is aware that the customer pays us all and values them? In my social life, are you good company, do we share values and interests, or are you really annoying or boring? Those things are the only things that matter, or should matter. When we can take pride in not needing symbols or events like pride flag and month then and only then in my humble opinion do I reckon we have cracked it. Until then though, Happy Pride Month to everyone who feels represented and that it gives them belief they can live happily and openly. I hope I am wrong and that actually it is empowering and breaking down barriers without what I like to call 'Idiots' who haven't got the brains they were born with being like scared rabbits towards anyone who is different from them. Until then, please call out all 'Idiots' instead of looking at your feet or looking away. Failing to discourage, by its very definition, lacks courage, and that's the only difference; people of Pride Month have had to show courage; the least you can do is make that inclusive by showing your own where they do get abused by the Idiots.

As a very proud mother of a gay daughter, I’m celebrating Pride 2024 - it’s an opportunity to come together in love and friendship, as well as a moment to reflect on past struggles and ongoing efforts required to achieve true equality. Fostering an LGBTQ+ inclusive and supportive workplace is so important. And the advantages go beyond ensuring that everyone of all sexualities and gender identities feel safe, supported, valued and included – it enhances business productivity and profitability. “The case for establishing a truly diverse workforce, at all organizational levels, grows more compelling each year….The financial impact—as proven by multiple studies—makes this a no-brainer.” Havard Business Review Nov-Dec 2020
CIRO stands with the LGBTQ+ community for Pride Month. “We should indeed keep calm in the face of difference, and live our lives in a state of inclusion and wonder at the diversity of humanity.” – George Takei

Always Just a Call Away! Preparing for a mortgage? Know your options and speak with a loan officer, like me, who will listen and provide options tailored to you and your finances and wishes, then you make the decisions. The worst thing one can do is find a home and then get pre-approved with the risk of finding out you don’t qualify for some minor reason and can’t currently make an offer. 💪💰 Knowing your buying power is the key to finding your dream home. Get pre-approved for your mortgage today and start your house hunt on the right foot. With same-day service, including weekends!. I'm here to help you every step of the way 7 days a week and always take calls after 5 PM. Know your options and realize your dreams with your Florida Lender. 🌴🌞 #thehelpfulLO #home #house #listreports #homeowner #househunting #realestate #mortgage #loanofficer #investment #finances Don't forget to ask me about the FAIRWAY ADVANTAGE, which gives you the highest buying power and loan approval without a property attached. It's the perfect way to start your search with your realtor, knowing you have an underwritten loan approval before you start looking for your next or new home and can close fast! Because you are already fully pre-approved by an underwriter, before finding a home. That is the Fairway Advantage! Know your options and realize your dreams with your Florida Lender. 🌴🌞 #thehelpfulLO #home #house #listreports #homeowner #househunting #realestate #mortgage #loanofficer #investment #finances
Fairway is committed to providing equal housing opportunities to all. Join us as we celebrate Pride Month and the LGBTQ+ community.
