Today, there is increased awareness about individuals with neurodiverse conditions, and one in 7 people are considered neurodiverse but fewer than 50% know it. Our experts will present a compelling business case for ensuring this diverse group of people can thrive in the workplace and what role the physical workplace plays in doing so. Many people with a neurodiverse profile are high performing, driven individuals who are bold problem solvers that excel in a crisis; the very traits that are in great demand at the moment. There is a compelling human and business case to be made for designing workplaces for inclusivity.

Key Takeaways:

  • Understand the neuro-sensitivities within the diverse workforce today.

  • Learn different planning concepts to address neuro-sensitivities.

  • Understand how to create inclusive spaces and enhance user experience.
