ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Inclusive design and accessibility research are reshaping how teams define software quality — and the benefits are both strategic and altruistic. Accessibility research expert Jamila Evilsizor joins us on this episode of the Ready, Test, Go. podcast to explore why real user voices matter more than guidelines when building reliable digital experiences.
Jamila shares how first-hand accessibility research changes executive mindsets, why “just make it work” is often the real goal for users with disabilities, and how teams can move beyond WCAG compliance toward truly usable products.
Some highlights from this digital accessibility-centric episode include:
- Why accessibility guidelines are the baseline — not the finish line
- How user research influences product, engineering and culture
- What practical methods can help embed accessibility into everyday delivery
- Why autonomy, dignity and privacy must be in focus
