Review quote
"Positively Purple should be required reading for every FTSE 250 CEO. Business leaders need to understand and value ''human capital''. Kate Nash is an expert in helping us recognise the value of every human - including those with disabilities."
Review quote
"Positively Purple is a tale about the talent and potential of people with disabilities. Any CEO wanting to test the robustness of their disability strategy should understand the politics of disability. Kate Nash''s personal story told with brutal honesty, is a compelling read and full of practical lessons."
Review quote
"Global multinationals like GSK, increasingly choose to learn directly from their employees with disabilities. Building disability confidence from the inside out by investing in a disability employee resource group will make the journey so much easier. Kate''s personal story shows us how to supercharge the disability inclusion revolution and create a better, more accessible, working world."
Review quote
"It''s hard for me to talk about Kate and her work without sounding like I am always using hyperbole. I find Kate Nash''s presence throughout Positively Purple inspiring. Her words embolden the reader to participate as proactive protagonists in the fight for equity. The path she outlines uses lessons from other equality and identity dimensions but adds a particular magic, unique to Kate herself. This book is essential reading for anyone who would call themselves an ally of equity at work. My team and I are all avid fans of Kate and grateful for all her lessons and practical actions."
Review quote
"Kate Nash has managed to do what no one before her has ever done. Positively Purple is the manuscript for living life and creating epic change for people with disabilities. Kat
