About this Event

Unlocking the Full Spectrum of Human Intelligence at Work

Lunch & Learn Masterclass | Courage People


Most organisations don’t struggle to find people.

They struggle to recognise the right kind of talent.

Too often, recruitment and leadership systems are designed around what feels familiar — rewarding confidence, speed and polished answers — while overlooking deeper capability, different ways of thinking and untapped potential.

This session challenges that.

It’s not about making small adjustments.

It’s about rethinking how we define, recognise and grow talent — and unlocking the full spectrum of human intelligence already available to us.

As AI continues to reshape how we work, we’ll also explore how simple AI tools can support different ways of thinking, reduce cognitive load and improve performance for everyone.


What we’ll cover:

• Rethinking recruitment to recognise potential beyond traditional norms

• Supporting neurodiverse individuals in the workplace

• Practical approaches to inclusive line management

• Using AI to enhance clarity, communication and productivity

• Building systems that work for a wider range of thinking styles


Guest speakers:

We’re delighted to be joined by:

Gemma Peebles, Principal of Harrison College, a specialist business, enterprise and employability post-16 education provision for neurodiverse young people

Elle Siddall, sharing her personal journey navigating ADHD and the workplace

Claire King, Special Educational Needs specialist, sharing insights on how AI can enhance workplace effectiveness

Felicity King, Human Behaviour Specialist, Courage People (Host)


Who is this for?

• Business owners and leaders

• HR and Learning & Development professionals

• Line managers and those responsible for people and performance


What’s included

• Interactive masterclass

• Practical tools and takeaways

• Lunch and refreshments

• Opportunity to connect with like-minded professionals


If we want better thinking in our organisations, we need to start by thinking differently about people.
