Episode Description

Be #PeopleSmart Founder, Jodie Greer chats with Jamie Shields, registered blind ADHD rhino, about how it feels to embrace your own identities and the value of intersectionality.

Jodie and Jamie are busting the myths that:

"Human beings fit into nice, neat diversity pillars," and

"Being registered blind means seeing nothing."

Hear how Jamie taking ownership of his own disability and neurodivergence has taken him out of a very dark space into a change-making positive one. And how 3 men in his family, with the same visual disability have had very different life experiences.

You'll also hear why intersectionality matters to Jamie, as a disabled, neurodivergent, gay man, and why businesses need to ensure they aren't just looking at diversity in silos.

You can find Jamie on LinkedIn and you can find out more about Inclusivi-T and Jamie's podcast on his website.

Be Your Brand - Personal Branding und PR Verena Bender „Be your brand“ ist der Podcast, der sich mit dem Thema Personal Branding beschäftigt. Etwas, das in der heutigen Zeit immer mehr an Bedeutung gewinnt. Sichtbarkeit und das Sichtbarmachen der eigenen Stärken, Kenntnisse und Leidenschaften ist absolut essenziell. Denn wenn wir selber nicht wissen, für was wir stehen, welchen Mehrwert wir für Andere schaffen und wo wir hin wollen… Wie sollen es dann unsere Mitmenschen wissen? Beim Personal Branding geht es darum, deine Positionierung zu finden und nach außen zu tragen. Das kannst du ganz analog auf Veranstaltungen, im Büro bei deinen Kolleg:innen und Vorgesetzten, aber natürlich eignet sich auch das Internet für das Sichtbarmachen deiner Positionierung. Die Möglichkeiten sind endlos: Es gibt zahlreiche social media Kanäle, Tools wie Blogs, Podcasts oder Youtube. Für jede:n ist da etwas passendes bei. 🚀 Was dir Personal Branding bringt? Die Antwort darauf ist unglaublich vielfältig und hängt mit deinen ganz persönlichen Zielen zusamme
