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

    Honestly, and this is IMO, just ask him. You laid it out nearly perfectly.

    Is there anything I can do to make sure you feel comfortable and supported at work.

    Approaches aren’t one size fits all, but just establishing a discussion and setting the precedent that you are open to further discussion is a great starting point.
