When transitioning from school into the
world of work and employment, the question often arises: what direction should
I take? I talk to many parents who are unsure how to help their children.
We have interviewed over 200 disabled families and the work world came up often. This is why we created the following playlist [open the top left button to access the list of interviews]:
Sharon’s son wanted a job… so he got the
local newspaper to publish a story about him and got… 3 offers! Helen’s son was
passionate about training his dog, and after seeing his contribution, the
training club overcame its strict rules and created a new rule to accommodate
his disability.
What many of these stories have in common
is that when people followed their passion (disabled or not), some magic
happens: they become great at what they do, new possibilities open, new ideas
evolve, new opportunities are crafted. It is even interesting that some
entrepreneurs decide to start their own business to follow their passion. This
turn of event is interesting because some people actually do not carry on in
the world of self-employment, by choice. This is because sometimes starting
their own business actually helps them in other ways. Following her passion
simply help them start their working life, build confidence, be seen and this
sometimes lead to a job offer... as it has for Kylee!
