Embedding neurodivergent talent into Telia’s AI and analytics teams sparked a cultural shift toward inclusive innovation.
Telia sought to increase workplace diversity but had never formally considered neurodiversity. There was uncertainty around how to onboard and integrate autistic consultants effectively without disrupting performance.
After receiving a management seminar on neurodiversity, Telia launched a pilot with two Unicus consultants in their Analytics & AI team. Leaders matched consultants with supportive managers and roles aligned to their strengths.
Created pathways for meaningful employment for neurodivergent individuals and elevated awareness of cognitive diversity within a major corporation.
If we can share this example with the rest of Telia, I believe it can benefit everyone.
