Are you facing aggressive, resistant, or defensive reactions from your design or development colleagues, your marketing department, your managers, or even your full-service advertising agency as soon as you start talking about accessibility? Do you want to learn how to counter and motivate them? Join my talk, and you’ll leave with some fantastic techniques and tactics to persuade them!
This talk is aimed at those who already work in the field of digital accessibility and hold a leadership or inspirational role. It’s essentially a peer-to-peer boost.
One of the worst things that can happen to people in creative professions is feeling confined in their creativity, tools, and toys. Whether it’s graphic design, content, or code, it leads to unproductive frustration.

In this talk, I will share how I guide and inspire designers, developers, and content creators to rock accessibility.
