Feeling confident in the workplace: “I am a transgender man, and I am bisexual”

With the ‘Feeling confident in the workplace’ campaign, we provide a stage for our employees who have had to break through barriers just to be themselves. As part of Pride Week, we start the series with our LGBTI+ employees.

What does feeling safe and comfortable at work mean for our colleague Luca? In this podcast, we talk with him. Luca works as a form developer at ABN AMRO, developing client forms and tools for the website.

Luca has a message for anyone still struggling with their gender identity. “Everyone should be able to be themselves at work, but in the end it’s your story. No one but you can decidewhat you want to say about it.”

No matter what

Daring to be yourself and being proud of who you are, that is the essence of self-confidence. At ABN AMRO, we have been promoting a working environment where everyone can be themselves and feel safe and comfortable, regardless of their race, ethnicity, gender, religion, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression.

In the series ‘Feeling confident in the workplace’ we talk with employees about being yourself at work and feeling safe in doing so. As part of Pride Week, we start the series with our LGBTI+ employees.

We think it’s important for our organisation to reflect the level of diversity in society, because we strengthen each other in this way. This feeds through in everything: in equal opportunities, talented people, innovative products and services and meaningful relationships. With our customers obviously, but with our employees too.
