Ep13: How to Support Neurodiversity in the Workplace with Laura Nielsen

May 15, 2024 Helen Wada Season 1 Episode 13

Welcome to Human Wise, the podcast that explores the commercial advantage of being human at work.

With host Helen Wada, executive coach and founder of The Human Advantage, each episode will explore what being human at work looks like across a wide range of industries, from people in senior management to those on the ground.


This week, Helen is joined by Laura Neilsen, HR professional and senior coach. Laura is an advocate for neuro-inclusivity both in the workplace and at schools. She’s also the Founder of SenVisible, a service that highlights the invisible experiences of parenting/caring for those with special needs and disabilities.


Together, Laura and Helen discuss the building blocks of a neuro-inclusive workplace, how we can set the stage for more empathetic, results-driven conversations around neurodiversity, and why curiosity is the key to promoting inclusion in the workplace.


What does neuro-inclusivity actually look like in action? And how can we, as leaders, make a difference?
