Supporting Neurodiverse Workplaces
Creating equal opportunities for everyone to thrive
Between 30% to 40% of the population is thought to be neurodivergent, and managers need guidance on how best to support neurodiverse employees to be successful. We’re all different - background, culture, experience, and more. Our brains are also wired differently, depending on person to person. Understanding and celebrating those differences is essential to supporting neurodiverse individuals throughout the entire employee lifecycle.
