I know I'm late to the party, but after catching up on watching the US Dance competition show, So You Think You Can Dance, I cannot tell you how excited I am to have seen someone on the show who uses a #wheelchair. Kaylee Bays was diagnosed with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and danced her way right into the choreography round on season 18 ... That's right, it took 18 seasons to see someone like me competing on the show. I've been watching from day 1 for the last 20 years and I cannot tell you how excited I am to support Kaylee! I don't know if you're aware, but #OsteogenesisImperfecta and #EhlersDanlosSyndrome have a lot in common due to both being tissue disorders. About 15 years ago I went through some testing to see if I too had EDS, specifically the vascular type. While I do possess the Hypermobility side of EDS, it was determined that I do not have the vascular side of the disorder. Therefore, Kaylee has a special place in my heart and like I've always said, #RepresentationMatters. Shine bright, Kaylee. No matter what you do, you make the #DisabilityCommunity proud for breaking through this barrier. #RareIsMany #RareIsStrong #RareIsProud #IAmRare #RareDiseases #RareDiseaseAwareness #awareness #disability #disabilities #acceptance #empowerment #independence #accepting #culture #allyship #inclusion #HumanRights #DisabilityPride #DiversityAndilInclusion #DiversityEquityAndInclusion #DiversityInclusion #DisabilityInclusion

As someone who struggled with isolation, as 'a Deafblind person in a world designed mostly for sighted, hearing people, as a guide dog partner facing public rejection on a regular basis, becoming a Commissioner of the World Health Organization’s new Commission on Social Connection is a tremendous honor. I’m excited to serve, amplifying the issues & innovative solutions within the disability community. Starting now. What are some of your favorite examples of strategies disabled people developed to resist isolation?

I would encourage everyone in my network to pause and read the attached post from Ramon Portilla. Ramon is an amazing father and his words really resonate with many of us impacted by autism. Neurodiversity is something that is not well understood. After years of maintaining silence I finally disclosed to my leadership and my team that I have a degree of autism that was previously referred to as Asperger’s Disorder. I disclosed this not because I necessarily wanted to, but rather because I was receiving a lot of feedback about my facial expressions, body language, candor, etc. The reality is that most of today’s leaders are not trained to understand and accommodate neurodiversity. It was actually nice to disclose this because I’ve spent the past 26 years in corporate roles hearing two specific messages 1) I drive great results 2) I need to work on my soft skills. Neurodiversity can lead to unintentional differences in how we interact with others. People with autism may have less control over facial expressions (lack of a poker face). Another outcome may be a concept referred to as “mirroring”. Other possibilities may include higher levels of comfort with candid communication that go beyond what neuro typical people may be comfortable with. The other side of the equation is that neuro diverse individuals may have heightened productivity and over index in creative problem solving. I’ve been doing quite a bit of research on this recently as I seek to continue navigating through my specific challenges. I would encourage everyone in a position of leadership to be mindful of the fact that not all differences in verbal and nonverbal communication happen by choice.
Will you dare? April is #AutismAwarenessMonth. This month should be an opportunity for all of us to move one step further in understanding #Neurodiversity at workplace and more important, to consciously engage to embrace and promote the unique traits that these fantastic individuals bring to our business. Autism for me has a name, Connor. He has pushed me to be a better listener, because he can’t communicate like others…he has stretched me to figure out ways to solve new problems, because most of the times he can’t express what’s bothering or disturbing him. Watching him live his life is always a teaching moment. When I look at him at many specific situations I wonder “would he dare?”… and he always amazes me with his endurance and resilience. So, would you dare to take some action this month? #HumanExperience #EmployeeExperience #HX #EX #AutismAwarenessMonth

I drive results by helping leaders nurture high-performing teams. I Co-Founder & Managing Partner, WITHIN
Most days dad can be a bit quiet, grumpy even. Not sure what he should do. Not sure what needs doing. But one thing really make him come alive: visitors. He loves to chat, listen to their stories. Basically he needs a little stage to be happy: either him in the audience, or us listening to his musings. So when mum needs reminding that dad can be fun, we come round and visit. - - - - Most days I write about #leadership and #MentalHealth. Thursdays I talk about my elderly parents and their journey. Follow me or hit the bell for more. #Care #RelationshipsAreTheSourceOfResults
