S5 EP6 – Why accessibility is good for business

In this episode of A Leader Like Me, we sit down with Matisse, an award-winning advocate for inclusive communications, to unpack why accessibility is good business—and why it’s time we stopped treating it as an afterthought.

We explore:

  • Why designing for the ‘outliers’ creates better experiences for everyone
  • Common accessibility oversights in communications—and how to fix them
  • The problem with getting stuck on acronyms like DEI or IDEA
  • The importance of listening to lived experience, especially in these polarised times
  • Why accessibility is not just a disability issue—it’s a human one

Matisse also shares insights from her journey in the DEI space and gives us a sneak peek into her upcoming book on accessible communications, out this October.“Accessibility isn’t a bolt-on. It’s a mindset. And when you bake it in from the start, you tell people: you are welcome here.”

Listen now and discover how to make your communications—and your workplace—more inclusive, effective, and welcoming for all.
