Neurodiversity at Work: How Accommodations Can Boost Inclusion, Productivity
Nearly one in five people is neurodivergent. This means that you, and everyone you know, is likely to have a workplace colleague who thinks differently, and absorbs information differently, than others.
Unfortunately, myths, misconceptions, and stereotypes abound about people who are neurodivergent. It’s important to break down outdated narratives and unconscious biases that suggest neurodivergence is abnormal, a shortcoming, or a disability.
