As neurodivergent individuals (including those with ADHD, Autism, Dyslexia, and Dyspraxia) make up a significant portion of the workforce (1 in 5 people), understanding how to lead with a neuro-inclusive lens is no longer optional—it is a competitive advantage and could help to save you costly tribunal or performance management costs.
Workshop Overview
This interactive half-day workshop is designed specifically for line managers to bridge the gap between awareness and action. As neurodivergent individuals (including those with ADHD, Autism, Dyslexia, and Dyspraxia) make up a significant portion of the workforce (1 in 5 people), understanding how to lead with a neuro-inclusive lens is no longer optional—it is a competitive advantage and could help to save you costly tribunal or performance management costs.
This session moves beyond basic definitions to provide managers with the practical tools, communication strategies, and management techniques required to unlock the unique strengths of neurodivergent talent and foster a high-performing, inclusive culture.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this session, managers will be able to:
- Define neurodiversity and recognize the value of "cognitive diversity" within a team.
- Identify common workplace barriers for neurodivergent employees and how to remove them.
- Adapt their management style to support different processing, communication, and sensory needs.
- Implement "Reasonable Adjustments" that are low-cost but high-impact.
- Conduct inclusive 1:1s and performance reviews that focus on outcomes rather than traditional "norms, and what to do if things do go wrong!
