Session Overview
• Actively recruiting talent with a disability, but not too sure where to look?
• Concerned about what ‘type’ of disability your business can accommodate?
• Preparing to face resistance or objections from the line managers in the selection
process?
If you have answered ‘yes’ to any of these questions, then join Lesa Bradshaw as she reflects on the common practice frustrations in the recruitment, selection, development and retention process of talent with a disability. Providing a deeper understanding of the barriers to inclusion, and the simple yet effective practices required to remove these, Lesa brings a fresh perspective on navigating the journey with success. She brings her lived experience as a business leader with a disability to this lively, humourous and stereotype-busting session, showcasing how a simple reframing of thought, tweak of practice, and relaxing of the fears can yield positive impact that benefits all.
