Accommodations and Understanding Neurodiversity at Work Pt 1 | Business and Culture Ep 6
We're really cooking now! Last week on the Podcast, Mat and Shawna had a great discussion about Neurospiciness (Neurodivergence) in the Workplace. They talked about all the different ways Neurodiversity can show up and the challenges and opportunities it brings.
This week, we're getting into how employers can support their Neurospicy employees and get the most out of them. We talk about all things neurodiversity in the workplace, like dyslexia, ADHD, and autism, and why it's important to understand neurodiversity and make accommodations.
Getting down to the practical side of office accommodations, not just theories, we'll tackle the barriers and challenges that come with providing accommodations, like when it might not be possible, while also making sure accommodations don't lead to discrimination against employees.
Neurodivergent individuals face many challenges in traditional hiring processes. Applying online and attending interviews can be tough for some of them. Our experts will share some tips and strategies for effective communication and give you some simple tips that can be made to accommodate neurodivergent individuals and allow interviwers to ask tough questions without getting into hot water.
Hopefully by the end of the podcast, we'll have given you a little insight into how to create an environment that brings out the best in all job seekers and employees. By Encouraging people with diverse backgrounds to challenge the status quo in the business world, and finding and supporting exceptional talent, no matter who they are, we hope to foster an environment that allows individuals to excel outside of the usual boundaries of the traditional office.
