Chicago Tribune: Navigating Hearing Loss While Building Business and Career Sharing the Chicago Tribune and Pioneer Press business feature by writer Daniel Dorfman published yesterday by Tribune Publishing Company. Thank-you, Dan, for capturing my human and professional journey from disability to the equal seat in the boardroom. Grateful to Brandon Faber and Chad Soon for your insights on the sports work we have done together quoted in the article. Happy to highlight The City of Lake Forest and the Chicago North Shore that have been my home for many years. https://bit.ly/42Ox8BN #BoardOfDirectors #Marketing #Communications #OpenForBusiness #HearingLoss #TobySportsGeekness #OneDayYouTooWillBeDisablsed

18hMelissa, thanks for sharing Daniel Dorfman's Chicago Tribune business profile published by Chicago Tribune Media Group to your powerful LI network. Given that everyone will experience a permanent and/or temporary disability in their lifetime, hopefully my story will educate CEOs and Boards as well as our fellow marketing + comms executives about the business case for disability inclusion and accessibility for their stakeholders. Beyond compassion and empathy, it just plain bad business to ignore the 1 in every Americans in 1 in EVERY 3 US households with a disability. Melissa, I'm so grateful to collaborate and work with you on important Expert Panels on Forbes Communications Council published in Forbes. Looking forward to the next one. #WomenSupportingWomen #ForOurDaughters #Forbes #Accessibility
