Ford GLOBE -- Changing the Corporate Culture

Ford GLOBE is an ever-expanding grassroots network of hourly and salaried employees, retirees and contractors at Ford Motor Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates. We welcome new members. Your participation is what helps make the group what it is and what it will become. Whether this is your first shy, tentative outreach to like-minded individuals at Ford or one small part of an ongoing activist lifestyle, your presence and viewpoints are welcome in this group. Ford GLOBE respects each members choice on how "out" they wish to be.

Ford GLOBE's goals are mutually beneficial between GLOBE members and Ford Motor Company. By helping to maintain a safe, supportive work environment for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered people at Ford, enhancing their loyalty and productivity, Ford GLOBE helps Ford Motor Company to achieve its goal of becoming the world's premier automotive company.

Towards that end Ford GLOBE has launched these web pages to inform and educate both potential members and the general public of our activities, both inside and outside the company. Please feel free to browse our pages, ask questions or send us feedback at info@FordGLOBE.org.

Ford GLOBE provides speakers for many organizations and events. Some of these are listed on our Speaker's Bureau. GLOBE support for Ford Recruiting is highlighted on our Ford Recruiting page.
