QT Leaders

Queer folks belong in leadership.
QT Leaders equips 2SLGBTQIA+ professionals with the resources to lead with purpose, resilience, and vision. By strengthening and empowering leadership at every level of an organization, the program drives meaningful change across the tech ecosystem.


QT Leaders is QueerTech’s leadership development program for mid-career, senior and executive 2SLGBTQIA+ professionals in the tech sector. This program is comprised of two core aspects: the QT Leaders Cohort Program, a guided curriculum-based experience focused on executive mentorship, strategic growth, and leadership capacity building; and the QT Leaders Community Track, a low-touch pathway offering accessible leadership content for queer professionals navigating career growth. By 2034, QT Leaders is committed to advancing 5,000 queer professionals into leadership roles—enabling positive sector change via internal decision-making power.

“I recommend anyone who wants to expand their leadership
skills to sign up for the QT Leaders program. It was very
challenging, but I feel so much more confident in my
professional development now that I'm on the other side. It's
rare to feel supported professionally, often as one of the only
Queers in the room, so it's nice to know that I'm not alone out
there. Thank you to the organizers and facilitators!" -C.B.
