Neurodiversity Smart: How to Build a Neuro-inclusive Workplace

Registration has now closed for this event.

About the Event

How can organisations build a neuro-inclusive workplace? Just like inclusivity as a whole, it is about creating a culture where employees can bring their true selves to work.

Within the workplace, neuro-inclusivity is about acknowledging, proactively supporting and empowering neurodiversity at every point of the employee lifecycle; from attraction to the company to separation.

For this webinar we have invited a few organisations who are working towards their journeys to achieving neuro-inclusion in the workplace, to share their insights from the work they have done so far.

In this session, we will discuss:

  • What is neuro-inclusion, and why it is important to incorporate neuro-inclusive practices within our organisation's culture.

  • How organisations can start their journey to achieving neuro-inclusion.

  • The benefits of creating a neuro-inclusive culture to organisations, and the impact it has on neurodivergent individuals in the workplace.

  • The opportunity to ask questions and hear from organisations who are implementing practices to make their organisations more neuro-inclusive.

There will be some time available for audience Q&A.

Please note, we use Slido in parts throughout our webinars to allow for audience participation. Our event host will provide clear instructions on how to participate, but there is absolutely no pressure to engage if you do not wish to. You will be able to access the Slido questions by using the camera on your phone to scan a QR code which the presenter will share with you, or by visiting www.slido.com and entering a code that the presenter will share with you.
