Programming example

This year, when hashtag#Saarathee sat down to think — what next in the journey of driving hashtag#DisabilityInclusion in corporates? What is missing? What does the industry truly need?One thing shouted from the rooftops.hashtag#CommonSpaces to hashtag#Share and hashtag#Learn.Leadership Collective — a forum for Inclusion Dialogues was created to share and learn through collective experiences of Inclusion practitioners.We launched our first dialogue around a critical question:How do we report, measure and position the outcomes and impact of Disability Inclusion? hashtag#ROI of Inclusion & how do we strengthen the hashtag#BusinessCase for Inclusion?As Aradhana Lal from Lemon Tree Hotels set the ball rolling with their inclusion journey and case study, the room slowly opened up to honest, curious and layered conversations.We heard discussions around:1.⁠ ⁠Integrating well-supported interns into the ecosystem2.⁠ ⁠The evolving need for accommodations and sensitisation3.⁠ ⁠Rethinking hiring itself — creating and modifying job roles to accommodate Persons with Disabilities instead of trying to fit people into rigid structures4.⁠ ⁠The reality that inclusion is constantly evolving and cannot be solved through templatesAnd somewhere through these conversations, people walked out with a sense of confidence, connection and conviction.Inclusion is a journey where every organisation creates its own path — navigating with intuition, instinct and intent…while leaning on the ecosystem when challenges arise.That is exactly why spaces like these matter.A big thank you to Vineeta R. Amarpal Singh Chadha and Sukriti at EY for hosting our first round table in this series.
