The story of Outward Bound in Anakiwa

START foundation empowers amputees in life through sport, by providing grants to purchase sports prosthesis or adaptive equipment, to help them achieve their sporting dreams. START foundation partnered with Your Time Matters (YTM) to fund a grant for Sara Shams to purchase prosthetic running blades.

Sara is a bilateral through knee amputee, who shares her personal story of losing her legs at the age of six. Through the love and support of those around her, she has been able to achieve so much in life so far.

Sara was interviewed by journalist and co-director of Written & Recorded Serpil Senelmis at a YTM network function that explored the topic of Teamwork & Collaboration. Throughout this interview, Sara talks candidly about growing up without the use of her legs, the challenges of learning how to walk with prosthesis, her career as a pharmacist and more recently, learning how to run for the first time.

For Sara, the key to her success so far has been teamwork and collaboration; a formula that enables goals to be achieved together!

Women are being discouraged from working in ICT at every level of the career funnel, from education to graduation to promotion. That's having a negative impact on the capabilities of ICT teams, the profitabilities of ICT businesses and the outcomes for our communities.

Infosys Consulting is taking action to improve diversity and inclusion in their workforce. This special podcast episode captures a brown-bag session with two change champions.

Chris Skipper-Conway is CEO of GMT People and Chair of VIC ICT For Women. Having recently spoken at the United Nations Commission in New York, Chris is challenging Infosys and all ICT companies to take action now to support a diverse workforce.

Louiza Nutt is an IT professional and Associate Board Member of VIC ICT For Women. She says we're grooming girls for failure through the language we use at home and a subtle change will reap rewards for the next generation.

Together they outline the background to our current diversity challenges, and lay out the roadmap to deliver real results.

DIVERSE IT was recorded and produced by Written & Recorded - A Content Creation Agency.
