Hi Lemmy,

Apologies if this is a dumb question.

I have a trans person that I supervise and I know he is having a hard time after Trump's only two genders executive order.

Is there anything I can do to make sure that he feels supported at work?

I have regular check-in meetings with my staff so I was hoping to see how he was doing, but don't want to force him into an uncomfortable discussion.

Note: His performance is still excellent at his job so this isn't a "coaching conversation" or anything like that

Even if it's not your bag having a flag up or sticker in your personal area could go a long way.

As others said treating as a person #1 always. Sticker is lower key than addressing it in that 1 on 1 deal. They cohld construe it wrong possibly.

You being cognizant of it is already ahead of the game.
