Great Minds Don't
Development and Coaching
Neurodiversity is the concept that all humans vary in terms of our thinking and processing. Within a group, each person has talents and things they struggle with. However, for some people the variation between those strengths and weaknesses is more pronounced, which can bring talent but can also be disabling.
Within the field of Neurodiversity, there are conditions which are considered to be Neurodivergent, these include Autism Spectrum Condition, ADHD, Dyslexia, OCD, Dyspraxia, Dyscalculia, Dysgraphia, Tourette’s Syndrome, and other acquired neurological conditions.
Neurodiversity in the Workplace
Our Neurodiversity and Neurodivergence live learning sessions are a great way to increase knowledge and understanding, build inclusion and take away tangible skills to create a workplace that allows everyone to have a great day at work.
Each of these courses can be purchased as a stand alone, or as part of a strategic neuroinclusion programme.
Should your business have a specific need from this session, we’ll be happy to support you in bespoke or tailored design. As with all Great Minds Don’t training, these sessions are lively, relaxed and interactive, whether delivered face to face or virtually.

During coaching sessions we will work with your employee to identify what is working well, what is not working so well, and help them to develop strategies that increase wellbeing, performance and productivity in the workplace. We use an evidence based and whole person approach to support the client in adopting new habits and strategies.
In between sessions, the client will be asked to complete activities, exercises or reflections, this is to support the work in session and ensure the benefits realised from coaching have a long term impact.

As organisations further their diversity, inclusion, equity and belonging agendas, it is becoming more apparent that the inclusion of Neurodiversity in the workplace has not previously been considered with the merit required. The practice of Neuroinclusion allows businesses a greater competitive advantage, increased employee engagement and well-being, and compliance with the Equality Act 2010.
