Wanda Deschamps

Seminar Speaker

Wanda Deschamps is founder and principal of Liberty Co, a consultancy working to increase the participation level of the neurodiverse population in the workforce with a special emphasis on autism due to Wanda's own diagnosis at midlife.

A champion for inclusion, she enjoys speaking and writing under the banner of the #InclusionRevolution, a worldwide movement launched in 2018 to spearhead broader thinking about disability - especially disability employment. She is also the catalyst behind the #Women4Women collective focused on gender equality through supporting other women. Combining these two goals provides an avenue for Wanda to be an advocate for autistic women, including as an advisor and participant in research into autistic women's experiences in the workplace.

Outside of work she relishes time with family and friends, exercising, and reading biographies, as well as books about history and current affairs. Wanda lives in Waterloo, Ontario with her husband and two sons.
