Why?
Are you aiming to address your company’s ‘war for talent’? Do you want to build talented, resilient, and productive teams that foster innovation in your company? Are you aware that neurodiversity plays a crucial role in this?
Innovation is essential for companies to continue growing. Diverse ways of thinking (neurodiversity) within a team are a catalyst for innovation. To build such a neurodiverse team, it is crucial to attract neurodivergent talents (individuals with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, giftedness, high sensitivity, introversion, etc.).
How do you actively encourage all neurotypes, especially neurodivergents, to apply at your company? How do you ensure neurodivergent candidates do not fall by the wayside during the application process and remain on board after recruitment? How can you make a difference? This workshop will explore various recruitment and onboarding strategies to bring neurodivergent talent on board and build neurodiverse teams.
What and for whom?
This workshop focuses on universal recruitment and onboarding for building neurodiverse teams. Alongside valuable insights and possible strategies, we engage in interactive exercises.
Designed for HR professionals, CxO, directors, managers, leaders and employers in companies interested in implementing neuro-inclusive recruitment and onboarding strategies.
Provided as a three-hour online or on-site session, in English or Dutch.
What you’ll learn
During this workshop, you will discover:
- How the diverse perspectives and thinking styles of neurodivergent employees and their unique talents and skills can form a competitive advantage for your company.
- How to broaden your talent pool and attract skilled employees who may often be overlooked due to stereotypes, preventing your company from missing out on candidates with invaluable qualities.
- How to craft a neuro-inclusive job posting. We will review several job postings and discuss how to make them neuro-inclusive.
- What is needed within your company to offer neuro-inclusive recruitment and onboarding accessible to everyone, including neurodivergents, allowing them to showcase their full potential. Through an interactive exercise, we will explore concrete initial actions your company can take towards a more neuro-inclusive recruitment and onboarding process.
