Synopsis

As more people are being diagnosed with ADHD, autism, and other neurological conditions, our proudly neurodiverse, austistic-led workplace has received lots of questions about how to accommodate a neurodiverse workforce. While that may sound scary or high maintenance, accommodations don't need to mean sacrifice or lowered expectations--instead, by shifting focus from individual diagnoses to opportunities for playing to all workers' strengths and abilities, this zine will help you to support employees with completing their tasks, getting past blocks, and avoiding burnout. Designed to offer managers concrete strategies for building functional, safe, and effective workplaces for people of all neurological inclinations and abilities, this straightforward guide will help your business save (and make) money, avoid common managerial crises, and retain high-performing staff. The work it takes to implement these easy and supportive strategies will save you time, cash, and turmoil in the long run! Put simply, to be a neurodiversity-friendly employer is to make it easier for every one of your staff to excel--neurodivergent and neurotypical alike. Pick up this zine, open your mind, and you'll be well on your way to better management for everybody.
