Navigating Neurodiversity at Work

Navigating Neurodiversity at Work

In today’s diverse workplace, understanding neurodiversity is not just a matter of inclusion—it’s a strategic advantage. Neurodivergent employees, including those with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and other cognitive differences, bring unique strengths such as creativity, problem-solving, and innovation. However, they may also face challenges in traditional work environments that can impact performance and well-being. This two-hour training equips leaders and HR professionals with the knowledge and practical tools to create a more inclusive workplace, improve retention, and enhance team collaboration. Research from Deloitte (2020) highlights that organisations with inclusive cultures are twice as likely to meet or exceed financial targets and six times more likely to be innovative. By fostering neurodiversity-friendly practices, managers can unlock potential, reduce bias, and create a workplace where all employees thrive.

What will I learn?

Navigating Neurodiversity at Work is aimed at leaders and HR professionals. It provides a comprehensive understanding of neurodiversity in the workplace, detailing common challenges, how to identify when a member of staff is facing difficulties, and offering insights into strategies that support staff in achieving their goals.

The Thrive team brings together research, reflection and practical approaches, delivered in an engaging way that brings impact.

Participants will gain:

  • a deeper understanding of neurodiversity in the workplace,
  • its impact on staff and the strengths it brings
  • key strategies to support staff in achieving their goals.

There will also be the opportunity to discuss and share their experiences with neurodiversity at work.
