Flattening World for Deaf / Hard of Hearing Consumers and Professionals

I created a white-paper and a PowerPoint presentation about the "Flattening World for Deaf / HOH Consumers and Professionals", which discusses the how the latest technologies and services have helped level the playing field for deaf/hoh consumers and professionals in recent years.

Also discussed, is why corporations should pay attention to this often overlooked population segment, along with a few general tips on how they can improve their products and services to meet these consumers and working professionals.

Read the white paper and/or view the PowerPoint presentation - provide feedback, comments, share with friends, co-workers and recruiters. Hopefully this article and presentation will be a small step in the right direction to help improve consumer and employment relations for the deaf/hoh population segment.

I welcome feed back and comments to help further improve and update this white paper and/or presentation. Feel free to share

these links with others as long as you cite the source.

Recommended Web Site: Deaf and Hard of Hearing People at Work



If you have a young deaf/hoh child, student, friend or relative that needs a role model for working deaf/hoh adults, I recommend visiting the "Deaf and Hard of Hearing People at Work" website, which is maintained by Karen Putz. Link: http://deafhhcareer.com/

This web site contains a number of success stories of deaf/hoh professionals in the work place.

Recently, I was asked to write a story about my own career - which now appears on the site at: http://deafhhcareer.com/donald-moore-it-professional-and-blogger/
