Throughout his career, Alim Somji has encountered stares, questions, and confusion with respect to his facial difference. This discomfort —driven, in his mind, by a lack of awareness —created challenges in building relationships and establishing trust quickly. Alim believes there’ much work to be done to create awareness and understanding in the workplace. Recent AboutFace research revealed that about 3 in 5 people with a facial difference reported being negatively impacted at work or within the context of work due to their facial difference. This needs to change. Join us, as we discuss expanding the DE&I conversation for healthier workplace cultures and to learn more about the work of AboutFace, who's vision is the elimination of the stigma and discrimination encountered by individuals with a facial difference.
