Our featured facilitator for this session of Inclusive Leadership (ILVW) in a Virtual World is Marie Dagenais-Lewis. Each week ILVW features a world-class Inclusive Leader highlighting their unique approach to Inclusive Leadership. On October 11, 2023, Marie addressed ableism as it is becoming more and more of a priority when it comes to building an equitably inclusive workplace…but what is ableism? Marie defined ableism through real-life examples in the workplace to create an understanding that empowers allyship and action.
Marie is a pridefully disabled art activist and author who creates to dismantle The Ableist Society. When she's not working as the Director of Social Media for Omnium Circus, she is working to empower the disabled experience through anti-ableist art and storytelling.
