Intro to Neurodiversity at Work @ 11am EST

$79

Live on Zoom – April 23rd from 11-12:30pm EST

17-26% of the population falls under the umbrella of Neurodivergence and includes diagnoses such as Autism, ADHD, Learning Disabilities, PTSD, Acquired Brain Injuries, and more. A largely unexplored frontier of inclusion in corporate spaces, understanding neurodiversity allows organizations to create neuroinclusive workplaces & spaces that ensure all workers can do their job at the highest level possible.

Participants will leave this session with:

  • An understanding of what neurodiversity is & some of the diagnoses that fall under its umbrella
  • Common challenges faced by neurodiverse workers in the workplace
  • Mental health impacts for neurodiverse workers who don’t receive appropriate support at work
  • Strategies to increase accessibility, inclusion, and belonging in the workplace
