Did you know that an estimated 1 in 5 people are “neurodivergent”—have a mind that works differently, such as the autistic, ADHDers, the dyslexic, synesthetes, and other unique neurotypes—and that the vast majority are motivated, capable, and unemployed? This indispensable guide is based on more than two decades of immersive cognitive science research, case studies, stories from neurodivergent voices, in-the-trenches work with hundreds of organizations from start-ups to global Fortune 500 titans, and Dr. Dunne's own lived experiences as a neurodivergent employer, entrepreneur, board member, and CEO. Too many unique minds and perspectives on the sidelines, and too many organizations beset by groupthink, innovation-stagnation, and a lack of access to qualified new candidates. The Neurodiversity Edge takes you all the way from why to what and to how, delivering practical insights that build on a new foundational framework: - Cultivate a values-driven approach to building a culture of sustained authentic inclusion where everyone can thrive - How to improve the interview process to avoid missing game-changing talent - Develop a hybrid office protocol that works for everyone and a support infrastructure that aligns with universal design principles - Discover why Google's Project Aristotle found that innovation and performance hinge on psychological safety - Uncover and eliminate the destructive influence of unconscious cognitive biases - Take a graphic tour into the wonders of the human mind - Understand unique problem-solving abilities such as lateral thinking, visual-spatial thinking, multisensory thinking, leaps of creative insight, hyperfocus, and many more - How to articulate and implement organizational goals and measure progress toward them The Neurodiversity Edge is an essential guide for executives, board directors, human resources professionals, managers, recruiters, entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, allies, educators, nonprofit leaders, and anyone with an interest in better understanding neurodiversity, authentic neuroinclusion, and the human mind.","forthcoming":false,"isbn13":"9781394199280","publication_date":"20240312","publisher":"Wiley","slug":"the-neurodiversity-edge","subtitle":"The Essential Guide to Embracing Autism, ADHD,
