Abstract
This study aims to explore the perspectives, determinants, motivations, and incentives of LGBT individuals in assuming additional roles or job responsibilities, with a specific focus on their perception of political issues. The study involved 10 government employees who identified themselves as members of the LGBT community, with varying educational backgrounds and years of working experience. Thematic analysis was conducted to identify common themes among participants' responses. The determinants of being an LGBT member included acceptance and adaptability, religious and moral perspectives, commitment and honesty, social engagement and political views, gender identity and self-perception, and political discontent and biblical interpretation. Motivations for taking on additional responsibilities included representation and community contribution, competence and collaboration, empathy and social issues, personal achievement and knowledge sharing, family as motivators, and passion and professional growth. The benefits of being an empowered individual in leadership roles encompassed personal fulfillment and contribution, role modeling and influence, professional and personal growth, and parental responsibility and impact. Factors that would incentivize LGBT individuals to assume additional responsibilities in political matters included recognition and social status, personal motivation and fulfillment, material incentives, professional development opportunities, progress and success of colleagues, and limited incentives. The study provides valuable insights for promoting inclusivity, support, and empowerment for LGBT individuals in their professional lives.
