Leadership LIVE: The Impact of Political Tension on Employee Well-Being: We are less than 82 days from the US Presidential Election. I am certain that political tension is an ever-present reality in today’s society, and its effects often spill over into the workplace.

I want to bring your attention to the challenges that neurodivergent employees face in the workplace 📢 Many fear disclosing their conditions, with valid reasons: 23% reported job loss or demotion after requesting accommodations.

“I go to the therapy and vent where I can because we all have to appear perfect on the surface. We aren’t allowed to have faults, make mistakes, or struggle. When we do, people lose trust in us because they see we are only human and we do make mistakes”.

With all we've learned with research, I believe that now, more than ever, it is critical for employers and organizations to start utilizing and celebrating the diverse backgrounds and experiences of all their staff members. We all have something positively unique to bring to the table. I understand by personal experience, for employees, like me, who've survived complex childhood trauma, its important to take a flexible and compassionate approach to management and organizational policies. This is certainly reasonable with what we've learned through empirical studies and research outcomes, and is accomplished everyday, by many well-respected organizations. Those oganizations with a culture of empathy and understanding are enhancing employee morale and satisfaction, which serves to create a more inclusive and supportive work environment. By prioritizing the well-being of all team members, and promoting practices rooted in trauma-informed care, organizations are not only mitigating the negative effects of trauma in the workplace but also fostering resilience and empowerment for all of their employees. I don't understand any organization who hasn't made this a priority, especially when implementing such practices resoundingly leads to increased productivity and greater work satisfaction. #neverquit #nevergiveup #kindnesswillalwaysmatter
