🧠 Integrating neurodivergent talent is the secret to business longevity! 🧠 20% of your employees right now are neurodivergent, but are you successfully utilising their talents and giving neurodivergent applicants a fighting chance? Failure to do so will inevitably result in these brilliant minds heading straight to your competitors, and who can blame them? These individuals are often creative, visual thinkers, who have a much broader understanding of the world, with a unique approach to problem solving, and they deserve to be seen and appreciated for who they are. Sadly, many of them don’t make it past the interview stage because hiring processes and workplace culture haven’t been adjusted to give them a fighting chance. Yet, they are most likely the staff member who will spot an error that saves your company thousands, and bring fresh new perspectives that help you break through barriers. Working with and supporting neurodivergent talent is an absolute honour. In acknowledgement of Neurodiversity Celebration Week, we sat down with 8 incredible neurodivergent people to see what they have to say about neurodiversity in the workplace. Spoiler alert: Hire neurodivergent talent! It’s the smartest business decision you can make. Brought to you by Enna - a neurodiverse team creating a big impact.

About us
Enna is revolutionising the world of work, so workplaces embrace neurodiversity, and neurodivergent individuals thrive ✨ Enna was founded by Emily Banks (who has ADHD herself) and was inspired by her neurodiverse family, who are autistic and dyslexic. Growing up, she understood that her Father and Brother were ‘different’. Why did they feel so uncomfortable in new situations, with new people and doing different things? Later, my Mum told me that they were autistic and dyslexic. For a long time, these words didn’t mean much to her. During her time at University, she developed an interest in understanding what they were, how it affected people like her dad and brother. She soon learnt that my brother and father weren’t alone, especially in their struggles to find employment. After doing research during as a student, she learnt that over 20% of the worlds population are neurodiverse, to which over 60% of all autistic adults in the UK were unemployed. This represented a staggering 500,000 people, with lots of talent, skills, and a collective desire to start a fulfilling career. She discovered that accessibility was a key problem facing neurodivergent people, which meant that many neurodivergent individuals were missing out on opportunities to get into sustainable employment. Traditional recruitment methods just weren’t favourable to different ways of thinking and doing, and often meant many neurodivergent candidates felt pressured, anxious and uncomfortable. Employers were therefore missing out on exceptional neurodivergent talent. Following this, she decided to widen her research, and got into contact with employers to understand their perspectives. Why were employers not hiring these talented individuals? Employers told her that they didn’t understand ‘invisible' disabilities and didn’t know where to find support. Enna is here to change this.

🌟 Great Feedback from Our Management Workshop! 🌟 Yesterday we delivered a Neurodiversity Awareness for Managers workshop, and we loved seeing this great piece of feedback in our inbox this morning... "Thank you for a great class on Neurodiversity Awareness for Managers. You did a fantastic job on an intriguing topic that isn’t well known. Keep doing what you’re doing, today’s class was fantastic." Its amazing to see managers so receptive to learning how better to support their neurodivergent team members. True neuro-inclusivity starts with leadership. By equipping managers with the right skills and understanding, it helps lay the foundation for a workplace where EVERYONE can thrive. Our management workshops give managers practical strategies, tools and templates that they can use in their day to day work. - How can you communicate effectively and give feedback? - How do I understand the needs of my employees and implement reasonable adjustments? - How do I adapt my management style to manage a neurodiverse team? If you want to empower your managers to lead with more understanding and inclusivity, get in touch at hello@enna.org. #Neurodiversity #Management

Just as women’s rights revolutionised workplaces, embracing neurodiversity will drive the future of business success. Culture change doesn’t happen overnight. It requires consistent effort, reflection, and a willingness to challenge long-standing behaviours. We’ve seen the transformative power of culture shifts in history, particularly with the women’s rights movement. Over the past century, women fought tirelessly for equality in the workplace, for the right to vote, and for fair pay. The introduction of laws like the Equal Pay Act of 1970 reshaped workplaces and society, ensuring that women had access to opportunities they were once denied. Today, the benefits of this shift are clear—diverse teams bring creativity, innovation, and better performance to businesses worldwide. Similarly, fostering inclusive workplaces for neurodivergent employees is the next step in ensuring equal opportunities for all. Studies show that companies embracing diversity are 1.7 times more likely to lead in innovation, and building inclusive environments strengthens employee bonds and trust. #NeurodiversityInTheWorkplace #EqualOpportunities #FutureOfBusiness

Did you know that Dyslexic people make up 40% of the world's self-made millionaires? And did you know there is real science behind why Dyslexic people make such exceptional Entrepreneurs? In the brain’s cortex, 'minicolumns' act as pathways for processing information. In dyslexic individuals, these minicolumns are spaced farther apart compared to non-dyslexic brains, which allows them to connect seemingly unrelated pieces of information. This unique cognitive wiring enables dyslexic individuals to identify patterns, think creatively, and develop innovative solutions—perfect for entrepreneurial success. Dyslexic entrepreneurs, like Richard Branson, leverage their ability to see the bigger picture, weaving together insights that others might overlook. This ability to blend diverse information into groundbreaking ideas is what makes dyslexic individuals such powerful innovators. Isn’t that incredible?! #DyslexiaAwareness #Entrepreneurs #NeurodiversityInTheWorkplace
