Neurodiversity for People Professionals: Half-Day Workshop


Most neurodiversity training tells you what it is - this workshop shows you what to actually do.

Neurodiversity is being talked about more than ever… but for a lot of organisations, it still feels unclear what to actually do.

You may have the best intentions, but supporting neurodivergent employees can feel overwhelming, unclear, or like a big, scary strategy document.

This half-day workshop is for HR, People, L&D and OD professionals who want practical ways to better support neurodivergent employees - without it feeling complicated or unrealistic.

Led by Becca Brighty, founder of ADHD Impact, this session combines professional expertise with lived experience of ADHD.

  • The focus is on making neuroinclusion feel manageable, human and realistic
  • Not theory-heavy or overwhelming
  • Just small, practical shifts that genuinely help neurodivergent employees feel understood and supported - while making things easier for managers too

This is about what actually works in real life - not what looks good in a policy document.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN
  • Practical ways to better support neurodivergent employees without it feeling overwhelming
  • How neurodivergent brains (especially ADHD) experience the workplace differently
  • Why traditional approaches and “one-size-fits-all” strategies often don’t work
  • How to have more effective, human conversations with neurodivergent employees
  • Small, realistic adjustments that make a big difference day-to-day
  • How to make neuroinclusion feel manageable, not like a huge strategic overhaul

WHAT YOU’LL WALK AWAY WITH
  • More confidence supporting neurodivergent employees
  • Practical tools you can implement immediately
  • A clearer understanding of what actually helps (and what doesn’t)
  • Ways to support both employees and managers more effectively
