They Just Came Out at Work—Now What? 😬
How to respond when a colleague shares they’re trans or non-binary
When a colleague comes out as trans or non-binary at work, many people want to be supportive—but aren’t sure what to say, what to do, or what not to do. This free, interactive TransFocus webinar creates a low-pressure space to build confidence, reduce anxiety, and practice responses that actually help. Through anonymous polls and facilitated discussion, we’ll focus on practical, real-world situations you’re likely to encounter at work.

Learning Objectives
By the end of this session, participants will be able to:
Respond with confidence and care when a colleague shares they are trans or non-binary, including what to say (and what matters most in the moment).
Avoid common missteps that can unintentionally create discomfort, harm, or extra emotional labour.
Navigate ripple effects by responding constructively to coworkers who may be confused, resistant, or struggling—without putting the burden back on the person who came out.
This session is designed for anyone who wants to be supportive but doesn’t want to get it wrong. There will also be leader-specific tips and tools.
