COMING SOON: LGBTQIA+, Inclusion and Ethics in Career Development

Please note: Orders containing LGBTQIA+, Inclusion and Ethics in Career Development will not be shipped until publication on the 15th of November 2026.

What futures do queer people believe are open to them - and what role do professionals play in shaping those futures? LGBTQIA+, Inclusion and Ethics in Career Guidance explores how identity, politics and practice intersect in the lives of LGBTQIA+ people navigating education and work, and in the lives of those who support them. 

Challenging careers practitioners to move beyond token inclusion, this book reveals how social attitudes, policy, and culture can both open and close doors - for clients and for LGBTQIA+ professionals working within politicised systems. 

Moving from history and language to practical action, this fascinating guide explores: 

• Disclosure and safety: supporting authentic self-expression while recognising risk 
• Intersectionality and discrimination: understanding complex identities and systemic barriers 
• Allyship and advocacy: turning good intentions into meaningful change 
• Practitioner wellbeing: sustaining yourself while supporting others 
• Ethical frameworks in practice: aligning with the CDI and AGCAS Codes of Ethics, Gatsby Benchmarks, and DfE guidance 

Essential reading for careers professionals, educators and leaders, this book offers the knowledge, confidence and tools needed to turn inclusion from aspiration into action.
