Join the Greater Seattle Business Association for a free day of training and fun as we discuss entrepreneurial support, inclusive marketing (products, services and tourism), network with our neighbors, and participate in workplace LGBTQ+ Inclusion Training. All are welcome, whether from Skagit or the surrounding region, and all businesses – LGBTQ+ and allies – are warmly invited.
Full Day includes three sessions:
1:00-2:45 p.m. LGBTQ+ Roundtable
This LGBTQ+ business roundtable welcomes community leaders, small business owners, and LGBTQ+ entrepreneurs from across Skagit County to discuss issues affecting their business or industry, all through a lens of inclusivity and equity. Additionally, we will chat on marketing, including digital and social media trends for 2023 as well as ways to communicate effectively as to and for the LGBTQ+ community, with the hopes of welcoming local and tourism dollars to Skagit County. GSBA will offer opportunities and available resources to business owners in attendance from Washington state’s LGBTQ+ and allied chamber of commerce.
Facilitated by Ilona Lohrey (she/her), GSBA President & CEO, and Chris Marcacci (he/him) Director of Marketing & Communications
A vibrant economy is strengthened through the full participation of diverse local communities. Every business and organization runs a little differently with unique specialties, strengths, and weaknesses. This training will help Skagit County organizations thrive as LGBTQ+ inclusive brands and environments. Whether it's ensuring your workplace policies are inclusive of all genders and relationships, increasing LGBTQ+ community awareness in the workplace, or learning to better connect with the LGBTQ+ community, we are here to help you create an inclusive company culture.
Facilitated by River Teslar (she/her), GSBA Business Training Specialist
