Neurodiversity refers to the naturally occurring differences in the way people's minds work; no two brains are quite the same. Certain aspects of workplace life can present real challenges for neurodivergent staff and the managers who support them. This course helps delegates develop a deeper understanding of neurodiversity and equips them to support neurodivergent employees so they can thrive at work.

About this session

This is a 3.5-hour Elevate Live session, delivered by an expert facilitator in a live, interactive format including case study work and lived experience videos. As part of our Building Inclusive Culture pillar, it focuses on the practical skills managers need to recognise, understand and support neurodivergent employees, giving delegates the opportunity to ask questions, discuss real scenarios and leave with actionable next steps rather than a static set of slides.
