Redesign the Future of Work with Neurodiversity in MindBrainstorm: A Guide to Neurodivergent Talent and the Future of Work is a bold, practical guide to rebuilding work from the ground up. It shows that inclusion is more than the right thing to do, it is essential to business success. With raw honesty, sharp storytelling, and real-world tools, Brainstorm challenges tired corporate narratives and equips leaders, managers, and teams to unlock overlooked talent. Drawing on the voices of people across industries and ways of thinking, including trailblazers, business leaders, and academics, it highlights how work must be built for every kind of mind.Written by Dave Thompson, a pioneering self-advocate, educator, and innovator in the field of neurodiversity employment for over a decade, this book shows readers how to: Build environments that empower people across every cognitive profileRethink “accommodations” as Success Enablers that fuel performance and growthFoster psychological safety, allyship, and trust in teams of every sizeRethink hiring, management, and retention practices to expand your talent pipelineTackle real workplace obstacles like communication breakdowns, burnout, and biasFor employers of all sizes and industries, Brainstorm delivers an urgent call to action: stop forcing people to fit a system that was not designed for them. Instead, rewire the system itself and watch innovation, productivity, and engagement surge, and see everyone win.
