If you want to master something, spend the time and go deep into that one area at the expense of all others.

Small actions beat master plans. But a systemic change in your organisation will survive and spread across teams and people.

In web accessibility, we want the outcome, but what we need is the journey.

Technical decisions

Most decisions in web accessibility are not technical decisions. They are people decisions.

If you've launched a product and it's not accessible, it's okay. You can only move forward and work through it starting now.

Who does the work

Whatever everyone says, most of the work is on designers and developers.

If you track the designer-developer handoff, you can ensure that accessibility intentions from design carry through to implementation.

Constructive discomfort is the only way to make room for everyone. We need to look for it whenever we can.

Shift your thinking from seeing accessibility as a barrier to seeing it as a challenge that pushes you to be more creative.

Measuring keyboard navigation as an accessibility KPI is crucial for ensuring that all users can fully interact with your website.

Every skill improves with practice. You just have to show up with enthusiasm and an open mind.

Don't rock the boat

Sometimes you have to rock the boat to shift the culture towards embracing accessibility as an integral part of web development.

As fast as possible

The slowest way to fix accessibility in your organisation is to fix it as fast as possible.

The 3 ones

When you face challenges that seem daunting, remember you are not alone and your efforts are part of something bigger.
