Course overview
Neurodivergence is a natural part of human diversity. Neurodivergent people are already valuable members of teams and workforces. But the majority of workplaces and processes are designed with neurotypical people in mind. This means your neurodivergent employees may encounter challenges at work that you might not be aware of. Luckily, increasing our awareness about this can help create a better workplace for everyone.
We all have a responsibility to contribute to workplaces that are truly inclusive. Increasing your employees’ awareness of neurodivergence in the workplace will help them be better allies. Understanding the barriers that neurodivergent people may experience will make supporting colleagues to overcome them easier. And participating in open conversations about neurodivergence can decrease stigma, too.
