Post by UBS

Meet Samira, a Client Advisor in Personal Banking from Bad Ragaz, Switzerland. Her story proves what the “Give to Gain” message truly means. After her accident, Samira and her team had to discover an entirely new way of working together. It required openness, patience, and trust from everyone involved. And through that shared learning, they unlocked a better outcome than any of them expected. As Samira says: “Strong teams are built through what we give to each other every day – especially in challenging moments. My accident brought us closer as a team.” By being transparent about her lived experience as a wheelchair user, Samira strengthened trust with colleagues and clients, sparked meaningful conversations and helped drive important accessibility improvements in her office location. Her journey shows that when we offer honesty, empathy, and space for one another, we don’t just adapt – we grow stronger together. That’s the ripple effect of giving! At UBS, we celebrate diversity and know that our differences make us stronger. Want to read Samira’s full story?
