# Celebrating Pride Month with the BoD Advisory Board: Dan Power

![](https://www.coriniumintelligence.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Dan-3-3.png)

### Dan Power, Managing Director, Data Governance, Global Markets at State Street, shares how his organization is supporting and celebrating the LGBTQ+ community

#### **What are you doing to celebrate Pride month in your organization?**

State Street has a ‘Pride and Friends’ employee network that is hosting a series of events every day in June to educate, inspire, support and celebrate the LGBTQ+ community. The company is also encouraging all employees to take online training on becoming consciously unbiased and a more authentic LGBTQ+ ally.

#### **How have you ensured inclusivity remains at the top of the agenda whilst your organization has been working remotely?**

I’ve tried to be supportive of my LGBTQ+ colleagues and to see and hear them as they express their struggles and perspective on where we are today as a company and a society.

#### ****In your opinion, what can we do within the wider data and analytics community to attract and then retain top talent from all walks of life?****

Companies and hiring managers need to keep working on becoming more unbiased and anti-racist. Discrimination diminishes everyone. Talent is talent, regardless of what labels society puts on someone, and we need to treat each person with respect and dignity.

#### ******More organizations than ever before are encouraging their employees to be their authentic selves, how does your organization encourage this?******

State Street does a good job encouraging its employees to develop, learn and grow into their best selves. There’s a quiet culture of tolerance and respect that I’ve been very impressed by over the past few years, especially throughout the global pandemic.

#### ********Why is celebrating Pride important to you?********

I’ve got a lot of friends and family in the LGBTQ+ Community, and it’s important to me that they feel valued, welcome and respected in all of the different communities that I’m part of, both professionally and personally.
