Neurodiversity refers to a variety of distinct ways a person’s brain works, and encompasses conditions like ADHD, autism, dyslexia, traumatic brain injuries and other sensory or cognitive conditions

Canadians are diagnosed with autism every year, according to the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences.Beyond it being the right thing to do, Mr. Coons says that creating an inclusive environment for neurodiverse workers can make work better for everyone.

In other words, the support one neurodivergent person needs could be radically different from what another needs to thrive at work.“They have really been our guides in understanding the biggest priorities and opportunities for a neurodivergent, inclusive workplace,” he says. While these are ideas other companies can leverage, “I think the resources that you create and provide are only as good as how they’re being activated,” says Mr. Coons.
