Book excerpt: In this “intimate celebration of queerness”, readers will meet the LGBTQ+ heroes who are changing the world on step at a time (OUT Magazine). Collecting deeply personal conversations with inspirational LGBTQ+ trailblazers (from Troye Sivan to Margaret Cho) about how they leveraged the challenges and insights they had as relative outsiders to succeed in the worlds of business, tech, politics, Hollywood, sports and beyond, Andrew Gelwick’s The Queer Advantage celebrates the unique power of queer identity. Their stories brim with the hard-won lessons gained over their careers. You’ll learn how to: Channel anger in a positive way -- using it as rocket fuel to succeed Leverage your difference to beget new ideas and strategies Bridge generational gaps Access resources to conquer denial, internalized homophobia, and doubt Read the room, deciding when to fit in and when to stand out Find a queer tribe and learn to support one another The Queer Advantage shows how you can forge your own path in the world–and perhaps even change it for the better.
