In this episode I chat with Becky Kuzma, a fast friend I made while at the Agile 2023 conference. Her talk on “How to Foster Neurodivergent Teams” inspired me and many others at the conference to look at the landscape of neurodiversity in the workplace with a different lens. Lots has been learned recently about neurodiversity and how it contributes to a more diverse and inclusive workplace as well as providing a lot of opportunities for individuals to consider their strengths in this traditional world, more than their weaknesses. As Emily and Becky, both diagnosed with ADHD later in life, discuss this topic we invite you to arrive with an open heart and an open mind as we dive deep in this hot business topic.
