Neurodiversity at Work
Neurodiversity is the concept that everyone’s brain works differently, and these differences are normal variations of the human mind. Rather than seeing these differences as a disadvantage, neurodiversity recognizes them as unique strengths and perspectives that add value to society, including the workplace.
Examples of neurodiversity include ADHD (attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder), ASD (autism spectrum disorder), Dyslexia, and Dyspraxia.
