A key part of creating a disability inclusive environment in the workplace lies in removing the attitudinal barriers that prevent equal opportunities and participation.
This is achieved through promoting awareness around disability as simply another form of diversity, recognising our stereotype-based judgments, and learning not to “whisper” disability as if it is something that needs to be treated with gentle sympathy.
Our portfolio of training sessions and informational talks are aimed at different segments of the workforce, from Human Resource practitioners, to line managers, to executive committees and general employees. Lesa Bradshaw, our principal presenter, uses a combination of humour, personal experience, subject expertise and passion to deliver barrier-busting changes in perception around disability and its place in business.
