A diverse workforce is a productive workforce.  We offer customized trainings and consultation to make the most of your talent.

What Is Neurodiversity?

"Neurodiversity" means valuing the differences in how people think and work. A diagnosis of ADHD, autism/Asperger’s syndrome or a learning disability may indicate a different set of strengths than someone considered "neurotypical." What makes them different is the secret to your success.

Why Support Neurodiversity?

Since 10% of adults are either on the autism spectrum or have Asperger’s, ADHD or a learning disability, your workforce is already neurodiverse. If you aren’t intentionally developing that talent, you may be leaving gains on the table. Autistic workers at one Fortune 100 company were 50% more productive after a three- to six-month program than an average worker was after three years on the job. Another firm found that autistic workers identified process improvements that cut the time for technical training, automated processes and led educational initiatives in the time saved.

Ensure that the best candidates aren’t filtered out before hiring due to outdated one-size-fits-all recruitment practices. Give your team the feedback and support they need to make the most of each others’ strengths
