Embracing Diversity: Creating Accessible Workplaces for All Women’s Minds and Bodies

11:00AM EST | 4:00PM UTC

In the modern workplace, creating environments that are equipped to support neurodiverse women and employees with disabilities isn’t just a moral necessity — it’s a competitive advantage. The unemployment rate for women with disabilities consistently trends nearly twice as high as that of women without disabilities, and only about 25 percent of employees say their company prioritizes disability in its DEI efforts.

Building workplaces that are accessible for all not only opens your talent pool to a wider population of qualified candidates, but it also can lead to profound improvements in organizational efficiency. Preliminary data from Hewlett Packard Enterprise suggests that neurodiverse teams are 30% more productive than other teams.

Join our panel of experts to discuss:

• Misunderstood and overlooked challenges that women with disabilities face at work and in the hiring processes
