This powerful video captures the emotion and fears of a transitioning employee.

Additional Information
A powerful look into the private conversation between co-workers - one of whom is transitioning genders. A must-see for any work environment. Insights include: Managers have the responsibility to counsel and coach employees on inappropriate comments and behaviors. We all need to avoid making assumptions about transgender colleagues. We also need to think about how appropriate or inappropriate personal questions are before they ask them of transgender colleagues.
