Overview

Understand the benefits of neurodiversity in the workplace, as well as practical strategies for inclusion that will help build stronger, more innovative teams.

Diversity can provide significant benefits for businesses of all types, including law practices. However, neurodiversity is often overlooked. Given that up to 20% of the population is neurodivergent, it is likely most of us will know or work alongside someone who is neurodivergent. 

The barriers that neurodivergent people traditionally face in employment means missed opportunities for both workers and employers. This is because these individuals bring unique strengths to the workplace such as creativity, analytical skills and innovative problem-solving, which can significantly enhance productivity and competitiveness. 

This course will equip you to understand, recognise and support neurodiversity in the workplace. It provides practical strategies from recruitment to the management and retention of neurodivergent employees, helping you to build stronger, more dynamic teams and workplaces.
