🔊 Attention Employers and Employees: Discover how to create a workforce where every employee thrives! Tomorrow, Wednesday, join us on the Heard & Empowered podcast by National Industries for the Blind (NIB) for a powerful discussion that could redefine your approach to workforce development. In this week's episode, our host, Hoby Wedler, Ph.D. engages with three industry leaders who are at the forefront of career advancement for people who are #blind or have #LowVision. They discuss a groundbreaking collaboration between NSITE—NIB’s talent management enterprise— and the American Printing House for the Blind (APH) ConnectCenter, the largest collection of resources and information on #blindness and low vision housed by the American Printing House for the Blind. Here's a glimpse of the insights you'll gain: 🔸 Marianne Haegeli, Director of Learning and Leadership at #NSITE, shares her strategic approach to creating career pathways that don’t just stop at landing the first job but continue to foster long-term #ProfessionalGrowth. You'll discover how partnerships with #APH and industry giants like Cisco are making a real difference. 🔸 Richard Rueda, Assistant Director of the APH ConnectCenter, discusses his innovative work in building resources that empower job seekers with blindness or low vision to enter and excel in the workforce. You'll learn how the APH ConnectCenter—via its CareerConnect initiative—is revolutionizing access to career information and support. 🔸 Lori Scharff, APH ConnectCenter Lead Content Contractor for Careers and Employment, delves into the Job Seeker’s Toolkit, an accessible, self-paced, and free online training course that helps people who are blind or low vision develop career exploration and job-seeking skills. You'll find out how you can access and use it, and how you can get additional and personalized help should you need it. If you're an employer aiming to leverage a diverse talent pool, or a job seeker pursuing a new job or career growth, this conversation is a must-listen. Don’t forget to set a reminder for tomorrow’s episode release so you don’t miss out! ⏰ And in the meantime — whether you’re leading the way, searching for job opportunities, or advancing in your current role — dive into our past episodes at https://lnkd.in/gQwEHfPt and take actionable steps toward creating or being part of a thriving, inclusive workforce. #WorkforceDevelopment #InclusiveHiring #CareerGrowth #APHConnectCenter #Leadership #ProfessionalDevelopment #Jobs #Careers #JobBoard

Vanesa Cotlar, the VP of People & Culture at PolicyMe, emphasized the importance of understanding employees' career goals and matching them with business needs. She said, "We talk about it openly. When discussing career planning, we're clear that your forever career likely won't be at PolicyMe." Translation: Your career journey is just as important as the company’s goals. It’s all about finding that sweet spot where both can thrive. These conversations are a two-way street. If PolicyMe can’t provide the next step up the ladder, they help employees find opportunities elsewhere. "We’ve done that a few times. Someone wanted to level up, but we didn’t have the need for that role yet," Vanesa shared. And when roles evolve beyond what an employee can handle? PolicyMe keeps it transparent. "We have open conversations about role changes and necessary skills. If they add value but can’t meet new demands, we explore other roles within the business or help them find opportunities elsewhere." PolicyMe’s strategy is all about balancing business needs with employees' aspirations. Bottom line: Open conversations and mutual growth. That's how you build a high performing team.
