Rowans Post Said
"Neurodiversity is not "a trend."
It's your workplace reality.
Did you know that up to 20% of your workforce—and likely your family or friends—could be neurodiverse? Many are navigating a world that too often misunderstands or underestimates them.
Too often, these individuals encounter bias, systemic barriers, or outright exclusion—and that’s costing your business, relationships, and community.
This isn’t just a DEI initiative; it’s an opportunity for better leadership and a collective responsibility.
Neurodiverse individuals bring creativity, focus, and problem-solving brilliance. While not every individual will share the same strengths, when supported to thrive, their contributions can be transformative.
So, what can YOU do to be an ally?
1️⃣ Educate yourself to remove bias and understand the unique challenges and strengths of neurodiverse talent. Follow voices like Dan Harris FRSA Samantha Hiew, PhD ADDitude Magazine Max J Green.
2️⃣ Offer proactive support, like clear communication, flexible deadlines, and tailored workflows.
3️⃣ Get clued up on accommodations and adjustments that make a real difference—because ignoring neurodiversity isn’t just exclusionary; it’s a missed opportunity.
Remember: Allyship isn’t just about helping teammates; it’s about strengthening the relationships you hold dear—with friends, family, and the people you care about most.
Don’t wait until it’s too late to get this right. Start now.
