A Hidden Force: Unlocking the Potential of Neurodiversity at Work

How can your teams meet their true collective potential?Diversity is a hot topic in the business world, but it has been largely restricted to meaning a diversity of experiences based on a person's heritage, upbringing, or gender. As A Hidden Force points out, however, there is another type of diversity that has been overlooked until recently: neurodiversity-the differences in how our brains process information.Through his research, personal experiences, and extensive interviews with global neurodiversity experts and neurodivergent people in the workforce, Ed Thompson convincingly shows:¿ Why neurodiversity has historically been overlooked by society and in business and why it's so relevant¿ Why embracing neurodiversity will help us be part of and build more innovative and effective teams¿ How we can take our new understanding of the topic and neuroinclusive principles into our everyday work and interactionsA Hidden Force makes a timely, apt, and critical contribution to today's business world. Written for business leaders, talent management professionals, and neurodivergent employees, this book shows why and how creating a work environment that welcomes the full spectrum of talent benefits everyone.
