Wrap Up

Over the course of this journey, you have learned the actions necessary to harness the power of allyship, for yourself and for others.

It’s now up to you to take what you have learned, integrate it into your own behaviors, and use these strategies to make your organization safer for all people to play an active role.

Real change should lead to action.

We hope you have gained a greater understanding of yourself that will equip you to be an effective ally.

Final Thought

Being an ally is about intentionally taking the time to respect, value and engage the person who is alone, who may be struggling because something has made them feel like they don’t belong.

Allyship is about empowering them by saying they are valuable, they are important, and your workplace is better with them in it.

Allyship isn’t about rescuing, it’s about being inclusive and embracing people so they can be their best.

So, go and be someone’s ally, and make the world a better place.

The BeCOME framework starts with C: Connect …

As an ally, ask yourself:

  • How diverse is my network?
  • Who can I connect to others in my network?
  • Who in my network needs an ally?
  • What can I do about it?

What would Connecting – or expanding your network – look like in your industry/company and for you personally?

We encourage you to think big:
Join others to address problems; be approachable; be intentional; and be aware that your position and network are assets you have that you can generously share with others.
