In this episode, hosts Steven Scott and Shaun Preece interview Dr. Anthony G. Anumis, an American born, Norwegian entrepreneur, and storyteller. The conversation revolves around his work at the Zero Project and his role in the program called Scaling Solutions. Dr. Anumis discusses how the program aims to take disability innovations and introduce them to new communities around the world. He emphasizes the importance of connecting these initiatives to people who need and want these solutions. The hosts and Dr. Anumis also delve into the idea of community being the foundation of opportunity and the need to involve and pay people with disabilities for their expertise in developing solutions. The conversation includes a discussion on the pitfalls of not involving the community in product development, using the example of an entrepreneur who wanted to create a specialized operating system for blind people but realized that the existing operating systems could work just fine. Dr. Anumis also shares an inspiring example of his collaboration with a group called Sensi, who translates books into Braille, including his own book on inclusive leadership, into a Braille version. The episode concludes with Dr. Anumis discussing his passion for his work and his dedication to creating impact through his initiatives. The hosts praise him for not using the word "inspired" and commend him for his commitment to being an inspiration to those around him. Dr. Anumis shares details about his book and where to find it, emphasizing the use of the website inclusiveleadership.solutions. The conversation is engaging, insightful, and provides a deep dive into the world of disability innovation and community-driven initiatives.
