💫Neurodiversity Celebration Week💫 "When a flower doesn't bloom, you fix the environment in which it grows, not the flower" Last week, we had the pleasure of welcoming Lucy Hobbs from The Future is ND to educate our teams on the importance of embracing neurodiversity in the workplace, what barriers people face and how we can support people at work. Neurodivergent talent brings innovation, creativity, and fresh perspectives, yet hiring processes and office workspaces often create barriers. As recruiters, we have a responsibility to support candidates and educate our clients on creating inclusive workplaces and hiring practices. #NeurodiversityCelebrationWeek #InclusionMatters

Data and insights are key to strategic decision-making, driving change, empowerment, and more inclusive workplaces. The more we gather, the more equipped we are, and the better decisions we can make as an industry. With our own 2025 Salary Census due out in April, we're encouraging everyone across #marketing and #advertising to take part in the #ALLINCENSUS in partnership with the Advertising Association, IPA (Institute of Practitioners in Advertising) and ISBA - ensuring that everyone in our workforce feels they belong. The survey takes just 15 minutes, and is conducted by Kantar and is anonymous and confidential. Taking part ensures your voice is heard in the industry’s drive to help recruit and retain the best talent.    Complete the survey here 👉🏻 https://lnkd.in/ej_buBP5
