Pride Month is in full swing, a time for celebrating the diverse LGBTQ+ community around the world. It is also a time to remember the fight for equality that has come before us - from the Stonewall uprising to marriage equality - the LGBTQ+ movement that has been forefronted by pioneers fighting for a better world for everyone. Lastly, it is vital we also use this as a chance to highlight the fight that continues, the trans community - who were instrumental in the progress we have made so far - needs visible support and allyship more than ever.

When I started my journey with Hitachi Vantara in September 2012, how I presented myself professionally was very different than now. I was told by my manager at the time not to share too much about my personal life as it would give a negative impression of myself as being professional and reliable. I thought if he was concerned about my hobbies and...

While we’ve seen progress in the movement towards
equality and inclusiveness for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer
