Our Purpose

The workplace gap we intend to close.

Transgender and gender-expansive professionals face a workplace landscape that has changed significantly — but not enough. The gap isn't between policy and practice, it's between what organizations say they value and what actually happens when an employee comes out. Closing that gap takes two things: courage and a plan. You bring the courage. We bring the plan.

What We Believe

You are never alone

Transition in the workplace can feel profoundly isolating. We exist to change that — standing beside you, not behind you, as things unfold.

Practical, not theoretical

Our consulting is grounded in reality. We know the art of the possible. Every recommendation is built for your specific workplace, your specific situation, your goals and ambitions.

Lifelong Advocates

Transition is a journey, not an event. We build plans that account for where you are going, not just where you are right now. We are lifelong advocates.

What We Do

Every engagement is tailored to you.

Your workplace, your timeline, your goals. All services are available virtually and in-person, wherever you are.

I had no idea how to tell my manager about transitioning, how to approach HR, or what my rights even were. Real You at Work gave me a clear plan and the confidence to execute it. I'm still at the same company. Now I am the true me — and I've been promoted twice.
