His colleague Madhu Shivappagowda, a speech and hearing-impaired senior analyst with over a decade’s experience in the company, plays multiple roles including offering sign-language support to associates across India through video communication and guides new recruits in the use of devices such as bone-conduction headsets, hearing devices and glasses — tools that make them feel confident and included.
