About this session

Most workplaces accommodate neurodivergence by accident. This session makes it deliberate. Built specifically for the "Lived Experience" context, this session stays concrete and respects your team's time. Expect a shift in how your team designs meetings, documents and feedback.

What your people take away

  • Name the Equality Act / ADA basics without the legal jargon
  • Design identity-first vs person-first language — and when each applies
  • Run universal design principles that make meetings and docs work better for everyone
  • Recognize the specific executive-function supports that help across ADHD, autism and dyslexia
  • Apply the four most common reasonable adjustments that take under a week to implement
