Wynne transitioned genders at age 56. She came out as trans to her entire company in an email-featured in the WSJ-saying You've all known me as Wayne, but tomorrow morning I will arrive to work as Wynne. She was already out to her family and many friends, but coming out at work was her final step to being who she truly was. As one of very few trans CEO's, Wynne is able to provide unique insight on trans issues and topics as a trans business leader and entrepreneur.
In 2017, at the age of 56 years old, I sent an email that changed my entire life, informing every employee of Bradley & Parker - who had already known me for years as their CEO — that I am also a transgender woman.
When I came out as transgender to my company, it was a final step in my complete my personal coming out journey. I had already come out to my friends and family at the time. However, revealing my true self at work, where I spend most of my time, naturally gave me cause for concern. I knew I was fortunate enough to be leading a great team, but would they accept me when they heard this news? Regardless, it was a final step in living the life I wanted to live, and it needed to be taken.
An estimated 1.4 million Americans are transgender. They work in various industries and some hold positions of influence and power in their respective companies. It's becoming increasingly common for transgender individuals to express interest in coming out to those they work with so that they may live as their authentic selves both outside of and within their workplace.
