One way to do that is through <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.intuit.com\/blog\/social-responsibility\/building-an-inclusive-culture-with-employee-resource-groups\/\" ><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">employee resource groups<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (ERGs), as they encourage connection, empathy, and trust between employees and also extend to customers. These employee-led networks formed from commonalities like ethnicity, gender, sexuality or shared interests, can lay the foundation for a culture of diversity and inclusion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We&#8217;re excited to highlight George Kousouros, global ERG leader of the Pride Network, and the work he is doing to build a more inclusive culture for our entire organization.<\/span><b><\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>1. Tell us a little bit about yourself.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I live in Essex, United Kingdom, with my husband Cris, our 2 children and our 2 dogs. I was born in North London to Greek-Cypriot parents and emigrated to Cyprus when I was 8 years old. At 20 I moved back to the UK to study at university and stayed. I have been working at Intuit for 2.5 years in the Small Business and Self-Employed Group, where I lead Learning, Development, and Quality across our International Customer Success business.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In all honesty, I\u2019d never heard of Intuit before I started working here. Once I started doing my research, I felt drawn to the mission, the values, and the general sense of purpose. From my very first interview, through my onboarding, I saw <a href=\"https:\/\/www.intuit.com\/company\/operating-values\/\" target=\"_blank\">Intuit\u2019s values<\/a> come alive in the people I met.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>2. If you had to share with a new employee or community member about Intuit, what would you say stands out most for you about working here?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our recruitment process is designed so that when people start we\u2019re not looking for them to prove themselves, we just want them to enjoy the process of learning their new role, getting to know their colleagues, and slotting into our culture. We place high importance on personal development, providing time, resources, mentorship, and coaching so people can move in the direction they want to. At the heart of our people strategy are the 13 Employee Resource Groups (ERGs), which represent and support our diverse talent.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>3. Intuit aspires to be a workplace that encourages diversity, inclusion, belonging and equality. How does the work you do support this?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I am one of three global leaders of the Intuit Pride Network, our ERG that supports and represents our LGBTQ+ employees. Together, we work to empower our people by educating the entire workforce on the LGBTQ+ community and issues they face, through events, panel discussions, fireside chats, manager education, and resources.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the last 2 years we&#8217;ve worked hard to educate our people on displaying their pronouns in their email signatures and messaging apps to create space and safety for our employees to express their identity freely.\u00a0<\/span><b><\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>4. What inspired you to take on a leadership role with the Pride Network<\/b><b>?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first ERG role I took was local Pride Co-Chair for the London site. Having been at Intuit for just over a year at that point, I hadn\u2019t experienced much from the Pride network and I appreciated that there was only one Chair at the site so I wanted to work with them to evolve the network\u2019s presence at the site.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Having seen all the positive impact I had helped create as a local Pride Chair, when the global leadership position became available I was excited to create that impact on a larger scale, using everything I learned as the London Chair and the skills I bring from my main role at Intuit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>5. What makes the Pride Network special to you?\u00a0\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Pride Network stands for so many inspiring things, and the most special for me are resilience and hope. Our community has fought so hard for the right to be ourselves, that we have changed laws, mindsets, perceptions, and shifted the narrative. Of course there is a lot of work to be done around the world, but the grit and resilience that the LGBTQ+ community has demonstrated throughout history inspires hope that one day we will all just be people who are free to just be.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>6. Tell us a little bit about what you\u2019re working on to support the Intuit Pride Network.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Currently we are working on delivering on our strategy for Pride month, &#8220;<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reconnecting with Pride<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.&#8221; After June we\u2019ll be working on our strategy for the next fiscal year, which starts in August.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our next big event will be the Out &amp; Equal Workplace Summit in Las Vegas, where we are hoping to gather all our local chairs. The summit will serve as a springboard for our strategy, inspiring fresh and diverse thoughts which we can bring back to our people.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>7. Walk us through a typical day for you as an employee and as a leader of the Intuit Pride Network.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I am based in the UK so start with activities related to my role here. As the day goes on I tend to have more interactions with our other markets and towards the end of my day I typically have meetings with US folks, who are just starting their day. Working across time zones can be challenging so it\u2019s important to set boundaries, communicate clearly and often, and make good use of asynchronous tools.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My Pride ERG co-leads and I have split our global sites between us by time zone to make sure we&#8217;re able to support our local chairs during their working hours. I&#8217;ve learned to be kind to myself when wearing multiple hats as an employee and as a leader. I have a family and 2 young children so it\u2019s important for me to establish a synergy between work and family life. What gives me confidence to navigate this entire landscape is that I feel supported, both at work and home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>8. What&#8217;s a piece of advice you&#8217;d give to someone who wants to be an ally of the LGBTQ+ community?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first piece of advice I would give is be curious and strive to educate yourself as much as possible. Your point of view is based on everything you have experienced so far in your life. If you haven\u2019t had exposure to the LGBTQ+ community, you won\u2019t have a well-rounded understanding or point of view. Strive to educate yourself by reading books and blogs, listening to podcasts, and by watching movies and TV series.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The second piece of advice would be, act on your allyship. When you hear or see something that you know isn\u2019t right, take action. Allyship isn\u2019t about tolerating diversity, it\u2019s about enabling it and acting on injustice, especially when you\u2019re not in the presence of LGBTQ+ people. An ally is someone who has my back when I\u2019m not there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8211;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Intuit, we\u2019re passionate about making sure that everyone can show up as their authentic self at work.
