Connecting with colleagues affected by disabilities

On March 20^th, BCLP and Wolters Kluwer’s Global Law and Compliance Department launched a joint series focused on Mind, Body & Spirit. The three-part series highlights both organizations' passion and commitment to cultivating a positive workplace culture that fosters diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging. In the first session, Connecting with Colleagues Affected by Disabilities, after an inspiring introduction from Renee Wickersham, Wolters Kluwer Director of Auditing & Compliance, members of both organizations discussed their lived-experience as individuals with a disability or those caring for a loved one with a disability.

Tonya Gaskins, BCLP Senior Emerging Talent Manager, moderated the panel and led panelists, BCLP Attorney John Kindschuh, BCLP Associate Spencer Rubin, Wolters Kluwer Health Senior Legal Counsel Zrinka Davis, and Wolters Kluwer Senior Legal Specialist Anna Gravesen, through a discussion focusing on lessons learned and tips for supporting colleagues. The panel was followed by a Q&A moderated by Ian Williams, Wolters Kluwer Managing Legal Counsel.
