According to some estimates, between 13 and 20% of the adult population in the United States identifies as neurodivergent or has a label or diagnosis that falls under the umbrella of neurodivergence. Forms of neurodivergence include, but are not limited to, autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and dyslexia. Developing a better understanding of neurodiversity will allow employers and their employees to better support as much as one fifth of their current or potential workforce and client base.
“Most employees are familiar with the traditional definitions of diversity in the workplace,” said David Friedman, ServiceSkills’ General Manager. “This new series addresses an important subset of diversity, involving coworkers and customers who, for a variety of reasons, might think, behave, work or learn differently than neurotypical coworkers. There are millions of American employees who are neurodivergent, and they have an enormous amount to contribute to employers if they’re properly supported. Providing appropriate support, respect and understanding to neurodivergent employees can improve their quality of life, productivity and employment experience, too.”
