In the end, only 25 made the cut, and RingCentral was among them. \u201cThe winners of our LGBTQIA+ Advocacy Awards Program represent standard-bearers for DEI, moving the tech industry closer to the human-centered future of work all people deserve,\u201d says Built In\u2019s Chief Marketing Officer, Sheridan Orr.\u00a0 \u201cThese companies remind us that change is predicated on sustained and substantive action, not just words. We look forward to seeing how they continue to foster DEI for employees in the LGBTQIA+ community and, by extension, for all employees in tech.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading h2\"><b>Inclusive every day<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maintaining a truly inclusive workplace is one of the things that sets the RingCentral culture apart. Our employee-led Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) embody our inclusive, people-first culture encouraging open dialogue, educational awareness, and positive change. This includes our employee-led Rainbow Room ERG, meant to engage, strengthen, support and build our community of LGBTQIA+ and Allies. Listening &amp; Healing rooms at RingCentral were also created to allow our employees to come together and share stories about their background and experiences, creating a space of understanding and empathy for others while fostering safe, understanding, and courageous conversations. With RCause, our corporate social responsibility program, we\u2019re extending our diversity and inclusion goals beyond our own workforce. RCause partners with employees to raise dollars and awareness for charities that they are passionate about.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading h2\"><b>Pronouns, pride and more<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe recently wrapped up our 2022 Pride Month celebration and our global #ShowUp theme for this year festivities centered around taking inclusivity to a higher level &#8211; exploring vulnerability, building allyship and leaning on one another for strength,\u201d RingCentral\u2019s Senior Vice President of Talent shared. \u201cWinning the Built In LGBTQIA+ Advocacy Award is incredibly gratifying and validates all the hard work we are putting into making RingCentral a place where everyone can bring their whole self to work.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During Pride month we made it possible for our employees to express their pronouns in Workday, and encouraged employees to update their pronouns on our own product, RingCentral Video, as well. We were proud to sponsor a webinar featuring Dr. Anthony Christian Ocampo, Ph.D., discussing his new book, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Brown and Gay in LA: The Lives of Immigrant Sons and The Latinos of Asia: How Filipino Americans Break the Rules of Race,<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> which has been featured on NPR, NBC News, Literary Hub, and in the Los Angeles Times.\u00a0We also had a lot of fun, with activities like our own version of RuPaul\u2019s Drag Race where our employees competed in trivia, performances and more.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Culture is everything at RingCentral\u2014we have always believed: the more inclusive our environment is, the more innovative we\u2019re able to be.
