WHY A SPEAKER WITH A DISABILITY?

At a seminar, of a conference, a conference successful opening or closing depends on the quality of the speaker but above all on his ability to create a strong emotional bond with his audience. A speaker who by birth or accidentally is confronted with a disability that he managed to surpass to excel in a discipline, to become a champion, or even to break a record against able-bodied people, necessarily has a highly emotionally charged experience and his testimony will most often create a strong bond with the public.

Of course one disabled sports speaker can intervene on “classic” themes disability and diversity : Disability and performance, disability in business, Integration of disabled people, RQTH recognition, SEEPH, disability awareness, inclusion etc..

But the lessons that a csports speaker speaking on disability distilled go well beyond these themes relating to disability and performance in business. Word " disability » comes from the English term “ hand in cap » (hand in the hat), in reference to a game played in the 16th century in Great Britain where the disability ensured equal opportunities between players. Subsequently, he applied himself to the world of sport. For example, in horse racing it designates the additional weights imposed on the best jockeys in order to restore the balance of chances between the competitors.

 

A sports speaker like Axel Alletru, motorcycle champion who became paraplegic at the age of 20, was able to overcome the trauma of his accident, regain his mobility to finally return to motorsport and become winner of the standard category of the Paris Dakar 2020 against the official and able-bodied pilots and this despite its disability !

His moving testimony appeals to the notions of self-improvement, adaptation, change management, resilience. It resonates with all stakeholders in a company to help them put their difficulties into perspective and to give them the courage and will to overcome their fear and cross the limits that often stifle their potential.
