Milton Tyree, from Marc Gold and Associates, opens his presentation by encouraging us not to believe everything we think, explaining how personal and societal assumptions can be unhelpful when it comes to finding meaningful employment for people with disability.
Instead, Milton encourages us to take a person-centred approach to employment by beginning with a process called Discovery. You’ll learn why Discovery is a critical part of Customised Employment and how it ensures that both the jobseeker with disability and their employer will ultimately benefit.
Milton’s presentation is illustrated with many real-life examples of people with disability who found meaningful employment in many different industries, even though “everyone knew” they were unemployable.
