Neurodiversity in the Workplace: Awareness & Inclusion Workshop
Neurodivergence—including conditions such as ADHD, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and dyslexia—has historically been misunderstood, often viewed through a lens of stigma and stereotypes. However, growing awareness highlights that neurodivergent individuals possess unique strengths that can offer immense value in professional settings. These qualities are especially relevant in industries like IT, analytics, law, security, intelligence, and beyond.
As awareness grows, leading organisations such as Microsoft, Dell, and GCHQ now actively prioritise neurodiversity in the workplace, not only to promote inclusion but also to unlock strategic advantages.
This three-hour training workshop is designed to raise awareness of neurodivergence in the workplace, support inclusive communication, and offer practical strategies for managers and teams. It also addresses broader themes around mental health in the workplace and inclusive leadership, making it relevant for HR professionals, line managers, DEI leads, and workplace wellbeing champions.
