Moving From Diversity To Inclusion

Inclusion Leaders
How many times have we experienced discussions of Diversity but there is no discussion of disabilities? Michael Hingson, blind survivor of the WTC terrorist attacks on 911 and a #1 NY Times best-selling author, shows us that it is time to move from Diversity to real Inclusion. Mike uses stories from his life working in management, and leadership positions to teach how a few simple mindset adjustments open the minds of everyone about including persons with disabilities. People take away ideas about how to gain more loyal employees and how to help make organizations more welcoming to all. Audiences leave with a different perspective of how to create inclusion in their lives. Mike will use a mixture of humor and serious talk to help audiences realize how anyone of us could in an instant join the ranks of persons with disabilities. Mike reminds us that we are all walking down the same road of life.
