Get ready for some Sweet Tea and real talk! ☕️

In this can't-miss episode of Sweet Tea and the Economy, brought to you by the Carolinas LGBT+ Chamber of Commerce, host Zach Anderson sits down with the dynamic duo from the Chamber's Resource Connect Committee: Nick Randone and Richard Stevens.

They're diving deep into the vital work of connecting and empowering Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) and Business Resource Groups (BRGs) across all the Carolinas – not just the Queen City! Discover how these groups are fostering inclusion and driving positive change within businesses.

Nick and Richard share their firsthand experiences leading impactful ERGs at major companies like Truist, Sealed Air (yes, the bubble wrap people! 🤯), and Ally. They'll also "spill the tea" on:

• Engaging remote employees in meaningful ways.
• Building strong community ties through business.
• The unexpected places showing HUGE support for the LGBTQIA+ community (like a brewery flying a Pride flag in Shelby, NC! 🍺🏳️‍🌈).

Plus, get the inside scoop on what the Resource Connect Committee is planning next, including crucial conversations around allyship and sharing best practices for ERGs.

Want to get involved and make a difference? They're actively looking for passionate volunteers! Find out how you can join the movement and help build a more inclusive business landscape in the Carolinas.
