Walk Like A Man by Dr. Amo Raju
‘‘The world shows no mercy to people who do not fit in or look like the norm. A world desperate to label you, to pigeon hole you, to keep you in your place. If you want to tick a box on the company’s Equalities Monitoring Form, then get comfortable inside that pigeon hole. If you want better opportunities for yourselves, then you have to be loud and proud of that impairment. It must not control you. You have to control it.’
This book has been a significant source of inspiration for CALM and it’s great to be collaborating with Amo at this year’s Baton of Hope Derby event.
Read this to learn more about:
- how it’s possible to overcome mental and physical challenges and find your way to thrive
- getting inspired to build a better world together for 1% CALMer

tiny habits
In effective workplace culture that believes that to do well, you need to be well, it’s not enough to have intermittent wellbeing interventions and activities
growth mindset
Recognition of the intrinsic link between productivity and wellbeing needs to sit at the heart of culture and mindset, not simply manifest as a lunchtime yoga session or a website with a helpline number
support team
It’s about considering the best way to create and deliver sustainable change through small steps and including people along the way giving people full permission to experiment and fail fast, championing kindness and care to develop powerful support teams for truly positive, holistic business and people outcomes
