CEO Reflects - Seeing Beyond Sight: How Leaders Can Build Truly Inclusive Workplaces

What if one of your best employees started losing their vision… and didn’t dare to tell anyone? In this episode of CEO Reflects, Fiona Bordet is joined by Veronica Alves-Cardoso, orthoptist, to explore a topic leaders rarely address: vision impairment in the workplace.

Together, they discuss:

• Why vision loss is far more common than we think
• Why employees often hide it out of fear
• How unprepared companies really are
• What inclusive leadership actually looks like in practice
• Why inclusion isn’t about cost, but about mindset
• How AI can support — not replace — human contribution
• And how workplaces and events can become more accessible with small, concrete changes

This episode is not about disability. It’s about capability, dignity, communication, and humanity at work.

🎙 CEO Reflects is a podcast about leadership beyond titles — where business meets the human experience.
