We will work on topics including:
1. Accessible space and place
2. Cognitive load
3. Clarity in communications
4. Addressing myths and stereotypes
5. Building confidence in working across the neurotypical / neurodivergent split (the “double empathy” problem)
6. Identifying neurodivergent traits and building in workplace adjustments to cater for those at all stages of the awareness and diagnosis process
