Neurodivergent folks can bring bold, innovative ideas to the table, but many prefer to stay silent and simply conform. True #disabilityInclusion means building workplaces where different minds can safely contribute and thrive. How comfortable do your people feel about sharing diverging ideas?

Diversity can happen pretty naturally in a lot of cases, but true #disabilityInclusion takes actual efforts. It’s in how you lead meetings, write emails, or offer support, especially for team members with disabilities. What’s one small thing you could do differently to promote inclusion internally?

At its core, inclusive leadership is about listening deeply and intentionally… and taking action on what you hear. It means offering real feedback, not just polite nods. When someone on your team comes forward and shares a barrier they face, do you actually act/make the change? #disabilityInclusion

Contrary to popular belief, accessibility isn’t about checking boxes to meet some legal obligations! It’s about dignity, acknowledging people and making them feel like they truly belong. Are your systems helping people show up fully or making them work harder to be included? #disabilityInclusion

“We treat everyone the same here” feels fair. But fairness and sameness aren’t the same thing! As a leader, can you tell the difference? #disabilityInclusion means removing barriers, not pretending they don’t exist. How is your leadership making room for the differences that exist in your workplace?

Bias isn’t always obvious and it doesn’t always look like bias - it hides in plain sight in policies, assumptions & even silence. But it still creates barriers. Inclusive leaders don’t just mean well, they act with awareness. Where might your good intentions need a second look? #disabilityInclusion

You don’t need to be an expert to lead with #disabilityInclusion. All you really need to do is respectfully listen, remain curious, and ask better questions. When was the last time you asked a colleague or an employee what they needed to thrive and feel like they truly belong?

Did you know that while most of it goes unseen, over 1 in 3 people in the workplace experience disability, neurodivergence, or age-related barriers? #disabilityInclusion is not about fixing people, it’s about fixing systems. How would your workplace change if your leadership made barriers visible?

Disability inclusion isn’t about being “nice.” It’s about leadership that not only sees everyone, but acknowledges and designs for difference. It builds loyalty, sparks innovation, and strengthens culture. So why is it still an afterthought for so many organizations? #disabilityInclusion

Most leaders say they value inclusion. But inclusion isn’t what you say. It’s what you do. It’s who gets heard, who gets promoted, and who feels safe showing up. When it comes to disability, is your leadership truly inclusive, or just inclusive-ish? #disabilityInclusion
