Neurodiversity in Organisations

Bol

Neurodiversity in Organisations closes the gap between practice and theory on the topic of neurodiversity in the world of work. Over the course of this book, the various forms of neurodiversity are described, as well as the ways in which employees and managers must successfully operate in their presence. The neurodiversity paradigm is a framework for understanding human brain function that considers the diversity within sensory processing, motor abilities, social comfort, cognition, and focus as neurobiological differences. Most will be familiar with many of its manifestations, including autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and dyslexia, but in the modern world, the challenges diversity poses to traditional corporate management are critically underdiscussed — not only from the perspective of employees but also for managers.Surveys indicate that between 15 and 20% of employees are neurodivergent. A resource like this book is essential for providing professionals and academics with a holistic and practical approach to the intersection of leadership and neurodiversity, answering the critical question of how leaders should manage neurodivergent and neurotypical employees to achieve excellence and outperformance. Inclusive leadership is an absolute necessity for any organisation seeking to achieve a competitive advantage across all business functions.
