If serious about embedding #accessibility strategies in your teams, start as small as possible. Have the team find something they think is inaccessible and have them fix it. It's not about anything other than quietly starting the habit. #accessibility #disability #business #mba

If you're looking for a powerful opportunity to increase your skills and employability, levelling up your accessibility skills is useful to nearly every sector, department and role that there is. #disability #accessibility #business #mba #learning

Here's an #accessibility exercise for managers/teams: Make a big, sloppy list of things that 'might' be inaccessible about your area of focus. Forget what you know (or don't) about accessibility. Pick the smallest, easiest thing on it. Fix it. #business #mba #disability

I am very sorry to hear of the passing of Mr. David Onley. He was a man of many accomplishments and his legacy on behalf of people with disabilities will live on. May he rest in peace.

When Matt was diagnosed with progressive blindness paired with early-onset hearing loss, his perspective shifted. Today, in honour of #GivingTuesday and #IDPWD he is asking you to share his vision of a more inclusive Canada by giving the gift of access. rickhansen.com/donate
