Workshops

Disabilities can come in many different forms. Most people are familiar with a "visible" disability. If you see someone at work using a wheelchair, wearing a hearing aid or using an assistive device, you likely are aware the person has a disability. However not all disabilities are obvious to the eye.  An invisible disability is just as life-affecting as a visible one, but they're not as talked about and easily understood. Disability is consistently overlooked in conversations about diversity & inclusion".

According to NeuroLeadership Institute’s Industry research report a culture of inclusion is one in which the habits of inclusion are not just demonstrated by some of the leaders some of the time, but by all members of the organization, all the time. How do we create such a culture? Appreciative inquiry is a recognized discipline in the field of organizational behavior and development and is a philosophy and orientation to culture change that can reshape how to approach creating a culture of inclusion.

The workshop will be focused on discussing the importance of having from various communities in leadership positions in organizations and the impact of not having individuals from various backgrounds in these positions.

The workshop is for everyone who wants a genuine insight to the realities of what the disabled community goes through and how we can find alternatives to develop ourselves pertaining to the context. Can we envision a board committee having disabled leaders in the future? If yes, then excellent! We ask you to share your experiences with us on how we can execute that! If no, we would like to know if you are open to learning with us?

Incorporating discussions, self-reflection, presentations, storytelling, debating in the session will positively allow you to formulate a respectful frame of reference in a conscientious way.
