Unbound Leadership - GNC/NB Research Project
This doctoral research explores the hidden workplace structures of homophobic binary expectations and enforcement, and how these constructs affect the working lives of gender non-conforming and non-binary lesbians/queers. From the bathroom to the boardroom and most work spaces in between, non-binary and gender non-conforming lesbians/queers face discrimination and harassment stemming from assumptions and prejudices arising from their gender presentation.This qualitative research project used a constructivist grounded theory approach to gain insights from 25 gender non-conforming and non-binary lesbians/queers on their workplace experiences.

Part 2 of the research findings conversation with Meryn Cadell
In this episode we talk about:
- Unbound Leadership and reflexive praxis.
- Pride and resilience as protective factors.
- Pronouns as gender signifiers.
- Non-binary, queer precarity as experienced by Unbound Leaders
- Gender spectrums, and not telling or identifying exactly where Unbound Leaders sit…
- Homophobic binary policing in the workplace, and how Unbound Leaders step up to facilitate HR and co-workers addressing it through calling in, training, and policy (including policy enforcement).
- Research as a process that finds and builds solidarity, and how it can be used to raise awareness around homophobic policing in HR.
- The importance of bystanders and allies (and friends and family and community) in challenging the intersection of misogyny and homophobia, and homophobic binary enforcement.
