Celebrating Inclusion Figures<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"CelebratingMeet Mayli Gibson, a tenacious girl born with a neuro tube defect called Spina Bifida, which left her paralyzed from the waist down. She uses a wheelchair but that has never slowed her down, actually it has propelled her into a life of exciting adaptive sports! She currently does WCMX (wheelchair motor cross) and dance, she plays wheelchair basketball, and recently started wheelchair racing in track. She has never let her differences stop her from living an active life. Thanks to Challenged Athletes Foundation Mayli has been able to try all kinds of sports, like adaptive surfing, as well as meet many amazing athletes who inspire her to follow her dreams.<\/p>\n

Mayli has always been an active kid. Her parents knew she was going to have a love for sports because she loved watching her big sister play soccer. She told them, \u201cIf I could walk I would play soccer!\u201d. That\u2019s when they knew she was ready to try sports and started looking for sports she could do. She started with cheerleading and dance. This girl loves to dance, everywhere they go – even if there\u2019s no music – she is dancing. After a couple of years of dance, Mayli and her mom decided to do something they had thought about for a while and start a wheelchair dance class. In 2015 they started the Ayita Wheelchair Dance. Since then their class has grown and Mayli loves getting to mentor the new girls in class. In 2015 she also decided to try WCMX. WCMX along with her Boxwheelchair has helped her better adapt to everyday life. From getting herself up ramps to jumping curbs and stairs. She would rather jump the curb than take the ramp now. Through her sports, Mayli has formed lifelong friendships with people from all over the world.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”166034″ img_size=”full” css=”.vc_custom_1679956486461{padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_column_text]\n

2022 Global Staff Forum welcomes staff from around the world in person for the first time since 2020!<\/span><\/h2>\n

Earlier this month, staff from around the world met in Santiago, Chile for the first in-person Global Staff Forum since 2020! On an annual basis, Best Buddies International hosts a Global Staff forum in a major international city aimed to bring together respected colleagues from around the globe, learning and sharing Best Buddies’ best practices, and connecting with corporate partners. This year we had participation from staff from Serbia, Costa Rica, the United States, the Philippines, Peru, Brazil, Chile, and Colombia. From informative and in-depth workshops to a Jobs networking event with over 50 representatives from multinational companies in attendance, and of course lots of delicious Chilean cuisine, our global staff left more inspired and energized than ever to create more opportunities for inclusion for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities around the world![\/vc_column_text]

Tip of the month!<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Who says leadership is a one-way relationship? As you work toward developing some of these leadership qualities, don’t forget to look to your followers for feedback and inspiration. Pay attention to the things that have been effective in the past and always be on the lookout for new ways to inspire, motivate, and reward group members.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n
