Produced by Nancy Christy Heinen for Pathways to Independence.
Becky recalls her guidance counselor advising her to look into secretarial jobs, “So I could sit behind a desk all day,” assuming that was all she was capable of. David recounts how he bristled when people told him to be “reasonable” in his expectation s for the future. Melvin remembers sitting in a chicago hospital with other kids who were victims of gang violence, realizing that if he wanted to be taken seriously, he’d have to earn it– but how?
Low expectations throw up barriers for a woman with muscular dystrophy, a man with cerebral palsy, a black man with paraplegia. Studies show that students with disabilities are filtered from exposure to opportunities for higher education and vocational training. And yet, these and two other individuals featured in “Careers” demonstrate how higher education is the key for an individual with a disability to break through the barricades that traditionally block disabled professionals from entering the career world.
The video illustrates that a wheelchair– or any other disability– does not prevent a person from pursuing higher education and a future more rewarding than simply performing a job. We hope it will inspire, and educate, those with crucial influence on young people with disabilities, and that it will spark the imaginations and aspirations of students to the real world possibilities that can– and should– open the door to finding a path to a career.

Google Tech Talks
January, 31 2008
ABSTRACT
Professional satisfaction is a question of creating what you want, not just waiting for it to appear. This tech talk, by one of the country’s leading career coaches, shows how the process works.
From my recent book:
“The process of creating a life that works for you does not unfold logically. It proceeds in fits and starts, involves unlearning as much as learning, and requires you to push forward amidst ambiguity. You have to act before you’re ready to act, consider that your true interests and preferences might surprise you, and defer evaluation until you have collected a lot of evidence. You have to get out into the world, seek out new experiences and connect with new people. I try to stick to these principles not because they¹re always easy, but because I¹ve learned they work.”
This tech talk will be an (entertaining and dynamic) introduction to the basic career- and life-planning principles that underlie this perspective.
Speaker: Michael Melcher
Michael Melcher is one of the country’s leading career coaches, and is a partner at Next Step Partners, a leadership development and executive coaching firm. With a blend of humor, sensitivity and professional acumen, he has helped hundreds of individuals develop their careers into personal platforms that are professionally fulfilling and personally meaningful.
He is a graduate of Harvard College, Stanford Law School, and the Stanford Graduate School of Business. He worked for several years as an associate at Davis Polk & Wardwell in New York, was previously a Foreign Service Officer in India and Taiwan, and founded an internet company focused on online immigration services.
