Some of the world's most successful people are left-handed; Oprah, Obama, Leonardo da Vinci, Jimi Hendrix and Bill Gates just to name a few. At least 10% of the population are left-handed, yet most items we use daily are designed for right-handed people.

Today is the perfect opportunity for your leftie employees to grab a right-handed colleague and show them how it can be tricky using objects not designed for them, like using scissors with their left hand, making and drinking a cup of tea, or even shaking someone's hand. Does your organisation create products that could do with a left-handed influence on design features? Today is the perfect day to raise this feedback and promote awareness that the left-handed in our society are constantly challenged in a right-handed world.
