I speak and consult on neurodiversity for organizations including Google, Harvard University, AstraZeneca, and Accenture. I believe that creating a neuroinclusive workplace isn’t just the right thing to do – it’s a competitive advantage.
Organizations that lead the charge towards more inclusivity will reap the benefits in unlocked talent, higher retention, and a greater sense of purpose. Organizations that fail to embrace neuroinclusivity will quickly fall behind.
Below, I’ve compiled some of the best resources on neurodiversity for leaders who want to build a neuroinclusive workplace. This list of recommendations is only a starting point, so don’t hesitate to reach out if you’re looking for more in-depth training or consultation.
