Rethinking Ability in the Workplace
Thursday, March 5, 2026 (1:30 PM - 2:30 PM) (CST)
Description
In this workshop, HR and business professionals will gain greater awareness of how unconscious bias, stereotypes, and ableism can influence workplace decisions related to hiring, supervision, promotion, and accommodations. Through guided reflection, participants learn to distinguish between assumptions about disability and an individual’s actual skills and potential, strengthening their ability to make objective, equitable, and legally defensible employment decisions. The session reinforces ADA principles and equips employers to reduce risk while fostering a more inclusive, high-performing workplace.
