Forbes Human Resources Council
Diverse workforce enabler @Rangam, building holistic workforce solution through disruptive technology, industry expertise and collaboration.
Diversity and inclusion (D&I) is an integral part of most organizations' strategy and vision. During normal times, it is an area that businesses work on assiduously to improve their brand and bottom line.

During normal times, it is an area that businesses work on assiduously to improve their brand and bottom line. However, with a global public health crisis impacting the economy and employment on an unprecedented scale, it is easy to put D&I on the back burner and focus on more pressing priorities.

Verizon Powerful Answers Award

An idea can change things for better, and perhaps, forever. An idea can push people to act and act decisively. At the 2014 International CES at The Venetian Las Vegas, WebTeam Corporation's idea of having an integrated umbrella system of special education utilizing a telecom giant's massive infrastructure received global media coverage. WebTeam won the Verizon Powerful Answers Award in the Education category, effectively committing to streamlining the approaches commonly applied to autism management at homes and in the classroom.
What does the award mean to the autism community?
A longstanding issue with autism education is that it is often unstructured and disconnected. In other words, what a child learns in the classroom is not always reinforced at home. WebTeam's idea is to have a technology-driven approach that can effectively address the problem of communication lapses among all the stakeholders. Parents and teachers will be able to be on the same page, being aware of what's going on with their child's education - anytime, from anywhere.
Most importantly, the all-inclusive autism management package comprising a screening app, an assessment app and an intervention app will be available at an affordable price. -
