Leadership and Disabled Individuals

Hi All,

Today I would like to talk a bit about leadership. Leadership is something that is commonly spoken of and admired but is not a common quality. Moreover, individuals with disabilities might never think of themselves as having the potential for leadership but this assumption is entirely inaccurate.

If you're an individual living with a disability there are numerous ways you can become a leader. Some ways include:

*Participating in a club, group or organization
*Teaching someone else something new
*Emulating the examples of other good leaders
*Taking a class on public speaking or assertiveness
*Joining a team

I hope that this helps you in your path to leadership!
