About the Course
Managing neurodiversity well is one of the most impactful things a manager can do and one of the least taught. This three-hour training gives managers, coaches and people professionals the knowledge, language and practical tools to create genuinely inclusive workplaces. You will leave with a clear understanding of seven neurodivergent conditions and how they show up at work, your legal duties under the Equality Act 2010, how to have adjustment and disclosure conversations with confidence, and how to build the kind of psychological safety that means people actually feel safe enough to ask for support. Built on 1,200+ hours of coaching neurodivergent adults, this training is practical, legally grounded and immediately applicable whether you are managing a team, supporting clients, or working in HR and people operations.
