It’s also about leading people with confidence. I can help you… 👉 Build confident, effective people managers 👉 Create inclusive, high performing workplaces 👉 Protect the business from legal and compliance risks 👉 And lots more. My journey through neurodivergence (both personally and professionally) led me to specialise in neurodiversity at work. I’ve seen a huge rise in businesses needing support in this area, which is why I’ve trained as a Workplace Needs Assessor for ADHD & Dyslexia and started a PG Certificate in Neurodiversity. We can work together in a variety of ways, from light support packages, to virtual and in-person management training. I also offer digital courses and share lots of free, practical advice on my website as well as here on YouTube.
