Layla McCay’s ‘Breaking the Rainbow Ceiling’ provides a compelling look at the challenges facing LGBTQ+ professionals as they navigate their careers – with critical advice from many senior figures, from CEOs to Ambassadors, who have smashed their own rainbow ceilings. McCay reveals the challenges that LGBTQ+ people commonly encounter as they find their way in work environments and explores the hidden differences that cause LGBTQ+ people to be underrepresented at the most senior levels of professional life. McCay exposes the barriers LGBTQ+ people face in the workplace as significant, widespread and damaging to ignore and she uses her voice to provides the practical strategies that can help empower LGBTQ+ people to reach their full professional potential and equips organizations to build a more inclusive workplace where everyone can thrive and succeed.
