Neurodiversity is not just about ‘doing the right thing’ anymore.
GCHQ, Enterprise Rent-a-Car, Direct Line Group and JPMorgan Chase are actively getting it ‘right’ and supporting neurodiverse employees throughout their employment - benefiting both the employee AND the organisation.
Neurodiverse employees can increase productivity levels by nearly as much as 50% (Siemens) - resulting in increased profits and customer satisfaction.
With many well known entrepreneurs voicing strong support for neurodiversity (Richard Branson, Lord Alan Sugar, Ingvar Kamprad to name a few), and programmes such as Employable Me creating national awareness, it is no surprise that the term is such a hot topic at the moment.
Join us for an interactive workshop alongside guest speakers from Genius Within and MatchWare to explore:neurodiverse traits and the many benefits they can have to any organisation
strategies to help support employees and ensure success
the best tools available to ensure employees reach their full potential
Bring vital neurodiverse information back to your organisation to help inform your diversity and inclusion strategy, senior management team and fellow colleagues.
