<Fazio> Organizational culture consists of shared beliefs, values, policies, and processes established by leaders that ultimately shape employee perceptions, behaviors, and understanding.
<Fazio> To demonstrate cultural maturity in accessibility, all aspects of the organization's operation, processes, and skills should include considerations for disability inclusion. Every member of the organization should understand and be sensitive to the importance of ICT accessibility, including their personal role and responsibilities in meeting the
<Fazio> organization’s accessibility goals. Accessibility should be an integral part of diversity and inclusion within the organization, with a clear recognition of the benefits of disability inclusion and the impact of ICT accessibility on people with disabilities to facilitate access to jobs, services, and other aspects of life.
