Talent Without Limits: Retaining Multi‑Generational, Disability‑Confident Teams
In today’s complex landscape, fostering a truly inclusive environment is a business necessity spanning every generation and ability. Join our hard-hitting, one-hour virtual workshop tackling the realities of both disability and age discrimination in the modern workplace. Led by facilitators with deep lived experience, this session moves beyond EDI compliance to equip you with the practical tools to see the person first, regardless of their age or physical and cognitive impairments. You will explore the multifaceted nature of visible and invisible disabilities alongside the often-overlooked barriers of age stereotyping, learning how to adapt your communication styles and operational strategies to bridge generational gaps and remove accessibility hurdles. By engaging with real life stories, you’ll build the confidence to support a diverse workforce, ensuring your organisation is inclusive, welcoming and equitable for everyone from Gen Z to silver talent. Expect to walk away with actionable insights to foster a culture where every employee can thrive, driving innovation, morale and long-term sustainability.
