Description

Career progression and an entrepreneurial mindset are pivotal in today’s corporate landscape, yet these goals often seem unattainable for individuals with special needs. Research shows that inclusive workplaces are not only fair but also beneficial: companies that embrace diversity are 33% more likely to outperform their peers. Moreover, individuals with disabilities represent an untapped talent pool, with only 28% employed compared to 75% of non-disabled people. This panel will explore how creating a supportive and inclusive corporate environment can unlock the potential of employees with special needs, fostering innovation and exponential growth for organisations. Join us to discuss strategies and best practices for ensuring that everyone feels welcome, equipped, and empowered to succeed.
