Why Manager Awareness Training?
So, why is Manager Neurodiversity Training important?
Managers are the heartbeat of an organisation—they’re on the frontline, interacting with a diverse talent pool every day, yet managing teams with neurodifferent members, and even being a neurodifferent manager, brings many unique challenges and opportunities.
We understand the importance of providing line managers with the knowledge, understanding, and confidence to foster and sustain an inclusive team environment.
We believe it’s crucial that managers receive training and have an opportunity to explore situations that are relevant to their specific environment and industry.
Research also shows that the effectiveness of an employee’s Workplace Needs Assessment, subsequent adjustments, and well-being is highly dependent on the manager’s grasp of neurodiversity, adjustments, and ability to create an inclusive team environment.
Providing your managers with Neurodiversity Training is a great way to proactively help them support their neurodifferent team members and colleagues.
Our Approach to Manager Neurodiversity Training
Our Line Manager Neurodiversity Training is an awareness session designed specifically for managers to support understanding, awareness and inclusion of neurodiversity (and/or disability) and an exploration of the challenges they might encounter in the workplace.
As part of our approach, we take the time to understand your organisations unique working environments and the existing systems and resources you have in place.
Typical sessions might include topics around:
-
‘What is neurodiversity and why it matters’.
-
Language.
-
An in-depth look into some neurodifferences, – including strengths, challenges and how to support.
-
Workplace Assessments, Adjustments, and the Equality Act.
-
Managing Challenges – scenarios and case studies.
