Successful organizations know their greatest asset isn’t their brand name or balance sheet.
It’s their people.
When every team member has the support they need to reach their full potential – well, that’s when the magic happens.
But too many organizations squander the potential of their neurodivergent team members, such as those with autism or ADHD. Talented contributors are sidelined or silenced, just because their minds work differently than their colleagues expect.
Fortunately, many leaders are starting to recognize the power of neurodiversity in the workplace. Leading firms like Google, Harvard, and Accenture are spearheading efforts to build a neuroinclusive culture where everyone has the support they need to thrive.
Your organization can join them.
I can help.
Keynote Speaker Dr. Dan
I’m Dr. Daniel Wendler, a proudly autistic clinical psychologist. I combine my clinical training and personal autistic experience to help your audience gain a deep understanding of neurodiversity.
I’ve helped hundreds of organizations apply the principles of neurodiversity to their workplace – including some of the worlds most successful companies.
(The reason I know Google, Harvard and Accenture are investing in neurodiversity? Well, they hired me to train them.)
A few of my bona fides:
- My TEDx talk about my life with autism has inspired hundreds of thousands.
- I’m the co-author of the Great Courses Audible exclusive Neurodiversity and the Myth of Normal.
- I’ve spoken about neurodiversity to corporations, nonprofits, universities, hospitals, research laboratories, federal and state government agencies, the US Army and Navy…the list goes on!
Plus, I pride myself on handcrafting a talk that makes your event amazing. Whether you need an in-depth training, an inspirational keynote, or something totally unique… you’ve come to the right guy.
Strength in Neurodiversity
My flagship training on neurodiversity is called “Strength in Neurodiversity: How to create a workplace where everyone can belong.”
Strength in Neurodiversity works great as an in-person training or a virtual webinar. I’ve delivered it for audiences ranging from Fortune 500 companies to scrappy nonprofits, and I can customize it to the needs of your event. For instance, we can add group discussion or reflection opportunities, or address neurodiversity outside the workplace too.
Your audience will learn:
- The core principles of neurodiversity and how neurodiversity helps us better understand differences such as autism and ADHD
- The competitive advantage provided by genuine inclusion and support for neurodivergence
- How to understand neurodivergent differences, rather than viewing them as deficits or “problems to be fixed”
- The implications of the social model of disability, and how environment creates ability.
- Common workplace challenges experienced by neurodivergent people and how to overcome them (including examples from my lived experience as someone with autism.)
- Practical applications for workflow and processes, office environments, hiring & promotions, conflict management, and more
- Specific applications to your industry and workforce
Oh, and your team will have fun too! I hate bland corporate trainings just as much as you do, and I would never inflict one on my audience.

If you want the best sense of what I’m about as a speaker, I encourage you to watch my TEDx talk “What Being Autistic Taught Me About Being Human.”
