Managers’ Workshop
Our Managers’ course is a one-day workshop delivered either online or face-to-face.
We understand the challenges managers can experience working within a neurodiverse team, so this training is specifically tailored for team managers.
Ideal for those who want:
To improve communication in their workplace
Managers who create an inclusive culture
To learn how diversity can be an asset in the workplace
This workshop develops in detail the themes from the Aware webinar. It’s designed to nurture an acceptance and change of culture around neurodiversity.
Why Is Understanding Neurodiversity Important For Your Organisation or Business?
Legal Compliance
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) laws mandate that organisations make reasonable adjustments for employees.
This is not optional but a legal requirement.
Financial Impact
Failing to accommodate neurodiversity can be costly. According to the Deloitte Mental Health Report for Employers 2022, poor mental health costs UK employers £56 billion annually due to absenteeism, presenteeism, and staff turnover.
This includes a £120 billion cost to the UK economy. However, there is a £5.31 return for every £1 spent on integrating wellbeing into your organisation’s culture.
Enhanced Talent Pool
By understanding and accommodating the strengths and challenges of neurodiverse individuals, organisations can access a wider talent pool. This inclusivity fosters a more diverse, innovative, and productive work environment.
