A roadmap to inclusive leadership: disability allyship (key no9)
When it comes to inclusive leadership, every action, big or small, contributes to a more equitable and supportive environment. As we explore the 9th key in our 15-part series on inclusive leadership today, our focus shifts to yet another vital element: becoming an ally for disability.
Within this narrative, we reconnect with John, our friendly people manager whose stewardship transforms a mere group of individuals into a collective of allies, forging an environment where employees with disabilities not only feel valued and respected but can also thrive… And in the process, enhance the sense of belonging and acceptance of the entire workforce.
John regularly takes practical steps to build an inclusive environment where employees with disabilities feel valued. Small businesses need clever yet realistic marketing plans to reach their goals and stay financially sound, offering you, as leaders, a guide to follow in your professional world. As we get started, know that disability allyship isn’t just the responsibility of those in leadership positions; it’s a collective journey where each team member has a role to play. Being an ally means having everyone’s back, no matter the differences.
