Listen "Neurodiversity with Mariane Power"
Episode Synopsis
Today marks the beginning of Neurodiversity Celebration Week and Nicole Turnbull sheds light on Neurodiversity with Mariane Power on Under the Rug at work.
Many people don’t know what it means to be neurodivergent and the impacts in the workplace, so we start by discussing what neurodiversity is, with Maz sharing her personal journey.
We also chat about practical tools and tips for leaders, employers, team members and neurodivergent people themselves to create a psychologically safe environment, celebrate differences and leverage strengths.
