how can you help dyspraxic job applicants ? dyspraxia is sometimes called developmental coordination disorder (DCD) .
Recruitment processes often lock out dyspraxic people, at every stage. As a dyspraxic grad, learning how to deal with these processes has been a beast to tackle. It can be debilitating and extremely demoralising. Ways you can make recruitment more accessible to dyspraxics... - Give interview questions beforehand so we can process them (bonus: give them to everyone, and get better answers!) - Don't penalise people for getting lost trying to find a new place, and don't see this as laziness or not caring - Give extra time and kindness around if extra time is needed to process and article ourselves - Be really clear in advance about what the process looks like, e.g. if there will be a group or written task - Don't place high value on handshakes or body language - Ask questions one at a time - Stop putting things that aren't relevant to the role as essential requirements (why do so many jobs without any driving require me to be able to drive👀) Dyspraxic folks, what would you add? Non-dyspraxic folks, does this bring up any questions for you? #DyspraxiaAwarenessWeek

Why can having a great memory be a curse as well as a blessing ? .
📙 The Canary Code | Professor, Organizational Psychology & Business | Culture | HR | Systemic Intersectional Inclusion | Belonging | Wellbeing | 🚫 Moral Injury | Neurodiversity | Autism @ Work | Global Diversity |
Neurodivergence is a superpower. Neurodivergence is a disability. Oh, if such simple dichotomies actually existed in real life. But real life is messy. Is great memory a superpower? Yes? But what if it also means you can't help remembering every word every bully has ever said to you, when you'd rather forget?🙋♀️ Is hyperfocus a superpower? Yes? But could it also put us in danger of burnout?🙋♀️ Canaries' sensitivity to toxic gases helped save people in coal mines. It also makes canaries vulnerable. Are canaries in coal mines superheroes? And the biggest question of all...do we REALLY need that hierarchy? Superhumans, superpowers ... Can't we all just be humans, with strengths and weaknesses? Just doing our work? Do neurodivergent people have to be superheroes to have regular jobs? What do you think? What is your superpower that is also ... not so much? Check out the article linked in the comments! The canary has opened a big can of worms! #neurodiversity #inclusion #HumanResources

This is an important post, but it is not happy reading... .
Trigger warning for everything listed in the image. Today is World Mental Health Day. Last week Tigger Pritchard Áú: and I stood infront of this slide and told the parents and professionals in the room to ask us anything. It was very raw to stand infront of the reality of, not just our own experience but the experience of so many. If there was to be a #metoomovement for the neurodivergent population it would be with regards to the barriers encountered to mental health. In writing The Subtle Spectrum I reviewed contempoary research into autism and the lives of autistic people. It made for grim reading and taught me that what I thought of as a deeply personal and private experience is actually one I share with the autistic community. Research shows that autistic people are more at risk of death by suicide, self harm, abuse: emotional, physical, sexual, more at risk of bullying in childhood and in adulthood and in the work place, more at risk of so many things. Things that would put strain on anyone's mental health. And this is the point. Being autistic does not cause poor mental health. Facing prejudice, being marginalised, being bullied, assualted, and so on, puts strain on mental health (regardless of neurotype). These things happen more to autistic people because of a lack of understanding. Happily we were able to promise the families we looked out on last week that their children's future does not look the same as our future did at their age. Things are changing. And parents and professionals like them, who seek out information and understanding are a part of that change. Tigger and I both will happily give you what we know, from research, from the autistic community, and from our horrendously personal and painful experience, to contribute to that change. Get in touch if you would like training on the interplay between autism and mental health. #WorldMentalHealthDay, #mentalhealthmatters, #endthestigma, #mentalhealthawarenesss, #YouAreNotAlone, #wellbeing #WorldMentalHealthDay2024 #WMHD2024 #WMHD #autism #autistic #autisticmentalhealth #autisticwellbeing

Neurodivergence is a difference not a deficit .
Neurodivergentie wordt in bedrijven nog te vaak gezien als '#stoornis' ipv verschil, terwijl het net voordelen oplevert voor werkgevers. De breinen van mensen met ADHD, autisme, dyslexie en -calculie, hoogbegaafde mensen enz. brengen innovatie, patroon erkenning, empathie, out-of-the box denken, hyperfocus en zoveel meer. Bedankt aan Trends magazine voor het interview en om enkele misvattingen aan te kaarten. #neurodiversiteit #inclusie #trends Faculteit Bedrijfseconomische Wetenschappen UHasselt
