Abstract

The focus of this chapter is on how leaders and executives can improve their strategic decision making around staff resourcing to foster work opportunities for people with disabilities and also support strategic business objectives. While you as a leader can champion disability inclusion, there are many other stakeholders and factors to consider. The chapter discusses the drivers of disability inclusion for businesses, the role of leaders in this endeavour and the possible strategies that organisations can adopt to employ more people with disabilities. Why would businesses employ more people with disability? What are the motivations at the executive level? How do these drivers relate to overall business goals? The chapter discusses key concepts and theories as applied to recent research with businesses in Australia. We present a number of evidence-based strategies for disability inclusion that can be enacted in your organisation.
