LGBTQ in the Workplace: Gender Identity vs. Sexual Orientation

Gender identity and sexual orientation are two totally different things, contrary to what many believe. For example, if someone is transgender, many people automatically think that they must be gay.

We'll provide an in-depth explanation of the various types of gender identities and how those are often expressed. We'll also talk about how people identify their sexual orientation, and the terms associated with that.
