Episode 193 - A Conversation with Dr. Kirk Adams: Talking Careers, Leadership, and Cyber Security

It's an all new That Real Blind Tech show as Brian is joined by Dr. Kirk Adams to discuss Kirk's background, the state of accessibility, employment, and Kirk's Cyber security training program. Brian kicks the interview off getting Kirk's opinion about the state of accessibility as 2025 comes to an end. We then discuss some of Kirk's career highlights. This rolls us in to discussing the still staggering unemployment rate of the blind, and raises the question of how important is braille in 2025. Next we discuss Kirk's consulting business Innovative Impact. Kirk then tells us about the Apex Program. We then discuss the failure of some blind organizations promoting blind individuals to the executive level. And finally we dive in to some career advice for those blind students out there and what they may want to think about as far as career paths. You can reach out to Dr. Kirk Adams on Linkedin .
