January 21, 2021 The New Inclusivity – Neurodiversity and Workplace Inclusion

The first event of the year kicked off with a thought provoking topic on Neurodiversity and Workplace inclusion. While many organizations are strategizing for re-entry into the workplace, they have broadened their horizons to include considerations that go beyond the norm. This discussion explored the different neuro-sensitives, how they impact 1 in 8 individuals and how we can implement design solutions to address them. The benefits of being proactive with design and policies to create an inclusive work environment is not a trend, instead, it is our responsibility as professionals to utilize the knowledge we have and make a change.
