In this episode, we explore exactly what it means to be neurodivergent. We also dive into what Agility in Mind research shows about the representation and inclusion of neurodivergent individuals in the workplace. Lastly, we also explore how managers can support neurodivergent workers even if they are working remotely.
Amelia’s guest today is Andrew Jones, Chief Executive and senior adviser experienced across multiple market sectors, who founded and now provides leadership for the Agility in Mind team.

Questions include:
- How do you define neurodiversity?
- It is fair to say that neurodiversity is lagging far behind when it comes to representation and inclusion. What do you think companies are doing to address this?
- What do you think are some of the strengths of having neurodiverse staff in the workforce?
- Can you outline some of the ways employers can make sure neurodiversity is actually celebrated in the workplace?
- How can managers and employers engage their workforce to implement this change?
