The recently released “Neurodiversity at Work” survey from global tech company Alludo found that 51% of neurodivergent workers have quit or are willing to quit their jobs because they don’t feel supported by their employer.
Yikes.
Yet, neurodiversity of all sorts — including ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, dyslexia and dyspraxia, to name a few — enlightens and enhances the workplace community.
“Neurodiversity is diversity,” said neurodiversity advocate Becca Chambers, 39, Alludo’s senior vice president of global brand and communications.
Chambers, herself diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, is the mother to a son with dyslexia and ADHD.
“As employers seek to break through plateaus and innovate in this new phase of work, embracing all types of diversity is key,” she continued.
These neurodiverse professionals share their career journeys and tips for navigating the workplace with neurological differences.
