About this listen

In this episode of Unstoppable @ Craig, we welcome Mike Hess, executive Director and Founder of the Blind Institute of Technology (BIT). Mike's journey from a misdiagnosed childhood to leading a nonprofit that champions employment for people with disabilities is nothing short of extraordinary.

We dive deep into the creation of BIT and the innovative strategies to place talented professionals with disabilities into meaningful roles. Mike shares insights on how technology can provide reasonable accommodations and the ongoing challenge of overcoming bias for true belonging. This episode is a call to action for leaders everywhere to embrace thoughtful policies, passionate allies, and the courage to champion inclusivity for all.
