Not every disability is visible. Many people live with chronic illnesses or other impairments that are not visible from the outside—or are not permanently visible—but can nevertheless have a significant impact on their daily lives and work lives.

In her keynote address , Karina Sturm—a journalist, author, and person living with a chronic illness and an invisible disability— offers insights into the realities of life for people with invisible disabilities. Among other things, she will address ableism, stereotypes, and societal expectations, and use concrete examples to demonstrate why visibility should not be the sole measure of the need for support.

A special focus will be placed on the day-to-day work experience: What does it mean when performance fluctuates? What barriers arise from rigid structures, a lack of flexibility, or unspoken notions of “normality”? And how can managers and colleagues help create a work environment in which people with invisible disabilities are taken seriously, supported, and included on an equal footing?

The goal of the presentation is to raise awareness about invisible disabilities, to challenge our own biases, and to provide concrete ideas for a more respectful, accessible, and inclusive workday.

The presentation is aimed at managers and interested colleagues alike.
