Hiring Neurodiverse Talent - and the role of Tech

Neurodiversity is deservedly getting much more recognition these days, really almost as a skillset that needs to be harnessed for maximum benefit, not just managed or ignored. From the countless business leaders with dyslexia, ADHD and aspects of autism, to the stereotypical autistic techie, to the everyday individual on the spectrum who just loves their routine, repetitive job because it gives them a huge sense of purpose and accomplishment. Neurodiverse talent has a lot to offer.

So now I want to open the door on a series of conversations with technology entrepreneurs and business leaders who are pushing the Neurodiverse agenda forwards. Often because of their own unique backgrounds, they have decided to build or change something – a business, a technology, a movement – that removes the barriers for neurodiverse employees.

I’m putting together my list of guests as I go, but hopefully I’ll attract enough experts to justify calling this a  Series. It would be fantastic to get a range of different perspectives so that anyone exploring the space can get some really interesting insights – from those creating the changes to those incorporating them in their own business.

So if you are active in the space, promoting Neurodiversity at Work, and have something to say, please get in touch by email at mattv@hrinvent.com !
