54 - Andy Thornton on LGBTQ+ inclusion in the marketing sector
Manage episode 314610933 series 3255511
The wonderful Andy Thornton joins me on the show to discuss the important topic of LGBTQ+ inclusion in the marketing sector.
Andy Thornton is a Digital Marketing Executive for Noisy Little Monkey and a Stonewall LGBTQ+ Person of Faith Rolemodel. They trained with the School of Sexuality Education and have delivered workshops on LGBTQ+ identity and inclusion to schools, universities and even festival-goers!
Andy has a sociology background and won the Peter Cressey Award at the University of Bath in 2020. He's done research into Queer and religious exclusion and have written, illustrated, and published a children's book called Rebekah's Secret Grandpa. Their current obsessions are TikTok marketing, Trans rights and tea.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Defining what it means to be a marketer who is part of the LGBTQ+ community.
- Why pronouns/identity are important to address as marketers?
- Examples of brands/companies who tackle the issue of community inclusion well.
- Resources to learn more about this for those who are new to this area.
- What should non-LGBTQ+ marketers do to make workplaces more inclusive.
- Advice for queer marketers struggling in non-inclusive workplaces who don't know where to start.
...and much more!
