"In 2018, GLOW launched
a reverse mentoring scheme where junior colleagues shared their experiences with senior management. After the session, I had partners and principals reaching out to learn more about the hurdles of coming out when starting new projects."

"At a LGBT+ recruiting panel
in college the global chair of GLOW at the time Andrew Jakubowski discussed handling gender non-conformity at client sites, building connections with straight coworkers and that he felt freedom to be his whole, quirky, very not straight self at Oliver Wyman."
- Alice Newkirk
"I was invited to participate
in the Pride Connection Summit’s welcome video where I shared my story about being openly gay at work. My dad was raised conservatively and struggled the most to accept my sexuality when I initially came out to my family. After watching the video, he texted me: “I love you and I am very proud of you.”
- Rodrigo Buenrostro
"Two colleagues called me a "Fag." Over a decade later, my blood pressure still goes up each time I think of this incident. Thankfully, I transferred my anger into something positive—banding together with other LGBT+ colleagues to co-found GLOW. I may not have had the clarity, urgency, or courage to demand a budget for GLOW during the Great Recession or a company-wide memo, expressing support from then CEO John Drzik, had I not been so fired up. Today I beam with pride, literally and figuratively, at how far Oliver Wyman has evolved."
- Ben Brooks
"I hope that GLOW can be more visible in the external world, especially in the Asia-Pacific region, where there are more social and cultural constraints."
- Betty Li
"The Madrid office will soon join REDI, the first inter-business association promoting inclusion
of LGBTI + employees in Spain. REDI’s members value talent regardless of their identity, gender expression and sexual orientation."
