Are Nigerian Workplaces Optimised for People with Special Needs? Ft Adenike Dasola Lawal

Most workplaces weren't intentionally built to exclude. But many still do.This week on Totally On Brand, we're asking the questions many organisations avoid: What does an inclusive workplace actually look like? And are we doing enough for persons with disabilities?Joining us is Mrs. Adenike Dasola Lawal, who has spent years advocating for more inclusive workplaces for persons with disabilities in Lagos, Nigeria. Through her work, she has championed conversations around accessibility, equal opportunity, and creating work environments where everyone can thrive.In this episode, she challenges the way we think about accessibility, disability, and what genuine inclusion should look like at work. Together, we explore why many workplaces continue to exclude people not always by intention, but by design and what organisations can do to change that.Whether you're a business leader, HR professional, entrepreneur, policymaker, or someone passionate about creating equitable workplaces, this episode will challenge your assumptions and leave you with practical insights you can apply.We'd love to hear from you: Do you think most workplaces are truly inclusive, or do we still have a long way to go?Share your thoughts in the comments.Watch, share, like and subscribe.Stay connected with us:Instagram: @totallyonbrandpodTikTok: @TotallyonbrandPodEmail: ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠Spotify: @TotallyonbrandApple podcast: @TotallyonbrandConnect With the Hosts:Tobi: @misshamiltonTemi: @temimakinsanya
