It's their turn. Other populations in the diversity spectrum have come a long way in their efforts to be seen clearly for who they are and what they have to offer in the workplace and society in general. Now people with disabilities, an historically emerging population, are taking their turn, pushing back against a unique set of stereotypes. Not the least is the notion that disability by definition precludes someone from performing, contributing, being a success. A meaningful slice of people who "happen to have disabilities" are capable of contributing on a scale never possible before. Gary Karp describes the changes that have transformed their lives, and helps his audiences get past deeply held beliefs that simply don't fit who these people are and how much they have in common with everyone else. Namely, the desire to live as fully, as independently, and as productively as possible. Said Lisa Jackson, Administrator of the U.S. EPA after Gary's keynote address in Washington D.C.: "You contributed immeasurably to our understanding of the challenges people with disabilities face, and heightened our appreciation of the ways diversity significantly enhances our workplace experience."
