Who Does Inclusion Exclude? | Rebecca McGinnis

Working to Work

In this episode I speak with Rebecca McGinnis, Senior Managing Educator of Accessibility at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, about the limitations of traditional inclusion models. We explore how her work in creating more meaningful inclusion for disabled visitors goes beyond basic accessibility, and draw parallels to the workplace, particularly for neurodivergent workers. We discuss how genuine inclusion involves recognising and appreciating individuals’ strengths, and fostering working practices and cultures that support them.

The episode also includes a review of Glassdoor’s policies to assess whether it is a neurodivergent-friendly employer. Time stamps coming soon!
