Wow! What an inspiring read. In The Secrets of the Hidden
Workforce, author Lisa Toth takes the reader on her journey of falling in love
with a population of people often overlooked and undervalued. In them, Toth not
only saw value in the differently abled, but also their potential to bring
something society needed to the table. Always one to root for the underdog, she
saw a way she could help by identifying the right jobs and finding onramps for
them to join the workforce. Toth created a staffing agency to do just this –
help this gifted group of people find work they can be proud of and find fulfilling.
Written as a memoir, this book is full of stories and
lessons learned. I appreciate how authentically the author wrote this book. She
includes the good, the bad, and the ugly. Downs Syndrome is near and dear to my
heart, and I also appreciated how respectfully the author told the story of a
friend she had with a small child with Downs Syndrome. The love for her friend
and child is clear and is what drove her to start her own agency helping differently
abled people find meaningful employment.
This book is well written and inspiring. I was engaged from
start to finish and enjoyed this ride through Lisa’s professional life helping
those who need it most. My favorite part
of the book was the introduction to her staff. I enjoyed meeting them. I highly
recommend this book to anyone looking to learn more about the topic.
Overall Rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
