Supporting neurodiversity at work

Neurodiversity is the range of differences in individual brain function and behavioral traits, regarded as part of normal variation in the human population.

Statistics suggest that 15-20% of people are neurodivergent, including conditions such as ADHD, dyslexia, and autism. This is true of your employees, too. Despite this, hiring managers may be fearful of recruiting neurodivergent teams and lose out on the many benefits of a neurodiverse company culture.

A lack of basic awareness and understanding of neurodivergent employees prevents companies from creating a supportive place for employees to thrive. This can lead to bullying, discrimination, and hardships for the employee, as well as the employer.
