Supporting Diversity and Changing Mindsets

Como nossos quatro aliados estão criando um impacto positivo para a inclusão da comunidade LGBTQIA+ e encontrando 'orgulho' em seu propósito

LM A energia eólica é pioneira na projeção e na fabricação de lâminas de turbina eólica, que são os produtos que são fabricados em diferentes materiais que são reproduzidos para criar um tipo de turbina. Individual, mas único por conta própria, mas uma mistura heterogênea maravilhosa ao trabalhar juntos para alimentar um mundo mais verde ”, diz Torben Molby (He/Her), diretor de diversidade. No LM Wind Power, nossa equipe de aliados celebra a inclusão e a diversidade durante todo o ano, tomando ações conscientes para ampliar a consciência sobre pessoas de identidades variadas, sexualidades, etc.

“The blades are symbolic of the diversity that people represent, individual yet unique on their own, but a wondrous heterogenous mix when working together to power a greener world,” says Torben Molby (He/His), Chief Diversity Officer.

An ally is a single word yet an individual equipped to support, create awareness, influence and drive change in the society for the rights and equality of any marginalized community. At LM Wind Power, our team of allies celebrate inclusion and diversity all around the year by taking conscious actions to broaden awareness about people of varied identities, sexualities, etc.

Within this global network of allies, our four #LMGameChangers allies work diligently to represent the LGBTQIA+ community across their four regions, regions that may be seemingly different in their mindsets, yet need similar support in their approach to allyship.

The United States of America is the birthplace of LGBTQIA+ Pride movement and continues to be the Pole Star for other regions seeking social equality started as a catalytic response against a police raid at the Stonewall Inn, a gay club in New York on 28 June 1969. This active and open rebellion paved way for Pride marches seeking acceptance and equality and promoting profound social change.

Paula Davis (She/Hers), Manager,  America Sales & Operations Planning started her allyship journey by “listening to people who identify as LGBTQIA+ and read websites to become educated”. Despite USA being on the forefront of LGBTQIA+ inclusion, there is still resistance and discrimination. As a vocal and visible ally, she “takes a stand, calls out discrimination and stresses the importance of equality and human rights”. When meted with resistance, she “educates people through building empathy and sharing of lived experiences”.

Pride celebrations in China have come a long way, as close to until a decade ago, the LGBTQIA+ community was visibly hidden despite decriminalization of homosexuality in 1997 and removing it from its official list of mental disorders in 2001. LGBTQIA+ people have a long way ahead in terms of enjoying the same rights and privileges as heterosexuals including marriage.

Despite a taboo and LGBTQIA+ content censored in China, Nicky Wang (She/Hers), our China Region Communications Manager and the Inclusion and Diversity (I&D) Lead focuses on turning bystanders into allies. She welcomed the Pride month-long celebrations for the first time in 2022 at their plants through awareness building and sensitization programs that circulated the importance of being allies to - understand, include, support and respect.

Lone Ostergaard

Western Europe has been on the forefront of LGBTQIA+ inclusion, the 1980s have been earmarked with adopting rainbow flag, LGBT acronym, amongst many other efforts like accepting electoral candidature from the community. The year 1989 saw European Parliament decriminalizing homosexuality and recognizing same-sex unions. Since the 21st century, European countries have seen accelerated demands from the community and LGBTQI movement, in accordance with the Carta Europeia dos Direitos Fundamentais. Ela levanta a filha com o mesmo espírito - não considerando nenhum cultural ..., idade ou ... LGBTQIA+ como diferenças entre as conexões. Ela considera seu papel como aliado de ser "um amigo - apoiando ... para garantir que todos sejam tratados justos" e "a cola que reúne outros, garantindo um diálogo e uma mente abertos".

Lone Ostergaard (She/Hers), Senior Manager, Process Capability & Readiness, Denmark, strongly believes allyship and inclusion starts at home. She raises her daughter in the same spirit – not considering neither cultural…, age or…LGBTQIA+ as differences between connections. She regards her role as an ally to be “a friend – supporting…to ensure all are treated fair” and “the glue that brings other together, ensuring an open dialogue and mind”.

While homosexuality was decriminalized in 2018 by the highest court in India, Pride marches were held since 1999 setting the stage of LGBTQIA+ inclusion. SOWMYA ACHARYA (SHE/HERS), nossa liderança regional de comunicações na Índia, foi recentemente reconhecida com um prêmio por sua aliança. Ela “aprende algo novo sobre o espectro LGBTQIA+ todos os dias - várias terminologias, experiências vividas etc.” Para uma comunidade que é "marginalizada", ela sente que "os aliados podem ser influenciadores positivos ... desempenham um papel crítico na transformação da sociedade", enquanto lidam com a negatividade que deriva "da ignorância e da apatia". Ela sente “consciência, ... fazendo mudanças de infraestrutura (por exemplo, banheiros comuns), usando pronomes e empatia pela comunidade ... certamente podem mudar a situação”.

All the four allies believe that learning and understanding are key to their role – for self-growth, to show care, to grow with the cause, and to create spaces for interaction that bridge gaps, dispel presumptions, and build understanding.
