Neurodiversity in the Workplace: What does it mean? | Online

About this event

Business these days is all about thinking differently. But what about people who literally do experience the world differently? Neurodiversity is an umbrella term for a set of hidden disabilities such as autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia and ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder).

1 in every 100 of us are autistic, yet in the UK just 16% are in full-time employment. But what are the realities of neurodiversity in the workplace and what can we change?

If you are neurodiverse yourself, an advocate or just interested to find out more, this event is an opportunity to start a conversation that is long overdue.
