Step 2 - Get Awareness

"I have never met a person with disability so I am not sure if they can work"

This is a common question which comes from a lack of awareness. The answer is simple - Think about abilities and inabilities in people. All people have an inability to fly. But we use alternate means like planes to overcome our inabilities. Similarly, people with disability use alternate means to overcome their inabilities.

Get awareness and understand the business value in hiring persons with disability and find out the steps to hire. Spread awareness in your company at all levels!! This is the first step.

Order the Coffee Table Book which 1000+ managers across India, Africa, Europe and Australia are using to gain insights into the potential of persons with disability.
