Embracing Neurodiversity: A Workshop for Managers & Leaders

Gain a better understanding of neurodiversity and leading neuro-inclusive teams

The amount of people who identify as neurodiverse or have been diagnosed as neurodivergent is rapidly increasing, and it’s very likely there are neurodivergent people on your team.

So why is an awareness of neurodiversity and the ability to lead neuro-inclusive teams so important for managers and leaders? Because with it managers and people leaders are able to tap into individual team member’s strengths and preferences so that they feel safe, included and are able to perform at their absolute best. And when everyone is able to perform at their best, you have a high performing team.

Join us for an essential full-day workshop that will build your understanding of the unique strengths of neurodiversity, how to harness them and how to lead a psychologically safe team. Discover how embracing different cognitive styles can drive innovation, boost productivity, foster inclusivity and promote retention in the workplace.
