August 6: Ben Trockman, Diversity & Inclusion Outreach Specialist, Old National Bank
Join us on Tuesday as we hear from Ben Trockman, Diversity and Inclusion Outreach Specialist with Old National Bank. Ben has been challenged to assist Old National to become a leader in disability employment and inclusion through education and awareness, while working to enhance recruiting efforts and rethinking the hiring processes to successfully recruit, on-board and employ people with disabilities. Ben also manages the Achieve Ability professional mentoring program at Old National Bank.
Ben is active within the disability advocacy community, and works with legislators in Washington DC and Indianapolis to improve employment opportunities, airline accessibility and healthcare options for people with disabilities. He previously served as a National Ambassador for Easter Seals.
In 2015, Trockman was presented with the “Spirit of Ability Award” by BraunAbility in recognition of his efforts at Old National. In July 2016, Ben was nominated as an “Honorary Torchbearer” for the Indiana Bicentennial Torch Relay. Ben was presented with the “Individual Achievement Award” by Leadership Evansville and, most recently, he was nominated by the Evansville Business Journal as a “20 under 40.”
Ben serves on the Easter Seals Southwestern Indiana board, the Alumni Council of University of Southern Indiana, the Indiana ABLE Authority board, and has been a passionate supporter of Habitat for Humanity of Evansville.
All are welcome at Rotary programs. The lunch buffet opens at Ivy Tech Culinary and Conference Center at 11:45 a.m. and the program runs 12:15 p.m. – 1:15 p.m. See you there!
