Mark’s story

“I was first introduced to ACON, when I – and my company, IBM – were asked to help establish Pride in Diversity, as an organisation focused on LGBTQ Workplace inclusion. Subsequently, I was able to join PID and ACON full time to assist the team in expanding its work nationally and to more and more employer organisations right across Australia.

With a reach of over 500 organisations, representing several million employees, Pride in Diversity has become the trusted source of expertise and counsel to these organisations, and thus has made a huge difference in the lives of the LGBTQ communities; a very heart-warming result.

I thoroughly enjoyed the teamwork, the professionalism and the credibility of ACON and the entire team. I was honoured to play a very small part in ACON’s incredible 40-year journey.”
