SUMMARY:Hiring for a different type of wiring - why should you embrace neurodiversity in the workplace?
DESCRIPTION: REGISTER \n\n\n\n\n\nCreating a more inclusive working environment that embraces neurodiversity – why fostering diversity of thought can lead to greater innovation and creativity in the workplace. \n\n\n\nAs companies ramp up their focus on Diversity\, Equity and Inclusion (DEI)\, there is one group that is all too often overlooked in the diversity conversation and when hiring. Neurodivergent groups often experience far higher rates of unemployment than the rest of the population despite having the ability and desire to work. \n\n\n\nThere are however\, organizations that are making an extra effort to recruit\, retain\, and nurture neurodivergent workers and as a result\, gain competitive edge from increased diversity in skills\, ways of thinking\, and approaches to problem-solving. \n\n\n\nJoin this conversation as we uncover what embracing neurodiversity really means in practice and what it can bring to an organization. \n\n\n\nKey takeaways \n\n\n\n\nLearn about great organizational practice in embracing neurodiversity from IBM\n\n\n\nUnderstand more about neurodiverse talent and what they can bring to the team\n\n\n\nHear real life examples of some of the challenges of employment for neurodiverse groups\n\n\n\n\nWe support a global audience with speakers from around the world. We acknowledge that events listed may not always run during your working hours. Please register for the live event to receive a copy of the recording and enjoy at your convenience. \n\n\n\nEvent Times \n\n\n\n\n7 am (Pacific) Seattle / Vancouver\n\n\n\n8 am (Mountain) Denver / Edmonton / Mexico City\n\n\n\n9 am (Central) Chicago / Winnipeg\n\n\n\n10 am (Eastern) New York / Ottawa\n\n\n\n3 pm London / Lisbon / Lagos\n\n\n\n4 pm Paris / Cape Town\n\n\n\n5 pm Helsinki / Amman / Moscow / Doha\n\n\n\n6 pm Dubai\n\n\n\n7.30 pm Mumbai / New Delhi\n\n\n\n10 pm Beijing / Singapore / Perth\n\n\n\n\nPlease note your registration for this event is subject to WorldCC Terms & Conditions and any data we collect will be subject to WorldCC privacy policy.
