Jeiz Robles

Jeiz has done an incredible job as the organization’s LGBTQ+ Business Resource Group (BRG) council leader. The LGBTQ+ BRG in the Philippines has been so widely recognized that it has since expanded to cover the rest of ASEAN. This Pride month alone, the BRG has created ten safe spaces that made the Employee Alliance for LGBTQ+ Empowerment (EAGLE) grow in numbers, expanding the enablement of allies through lived experiences in different countries. Globally, as an Asian, bisexual, neurodivergent woman, she has created spaces for intersectional allies on the plight of the LGBTQ+ neurodiversity community. She believes it’s important to stand as a role model, enabling others to start speaking about their experiences when it comes to neurodiversity& mental health. In the last two years, Jeiz has been part of strategy building for IBM’s LGBTQ+ priorities for Corporate Advocacy and BRG Eminence around the globe. She leads the Philippine Financial & Inter-inudstry Pride and founded the National Inclusion Council of the Philippines, supporting LGBTQ+ Youth by enabling “Balur Kanlungan”, a virtual safe space for LGBTQ+ youth in the Philippines.
