Watch the webinar hosted by The Chartered Governance Institute on 8 June, which expands on the areas covered in our article 'Cognitive Diversity - A 'Difference' Future'.
The webinar draws from notable experts and boardroom practitioners, including Neil Tsappis, Dr Tamara Russell, Denise Wilson OBE, Charlotte Valeur and Dr Marilieke Engbers. It explores how the boardroom is failing to grasp the opportunities from truly diverse thought, why actively seeking difference is essential for innovation and the evolution of people-planet centric business, and how cognitive diversity can be made to work successfully.
Many people are now exploring whether they might be neurodivergent, especially if they've faced lifelong challenges with things like social communication, executive functioning, or sensory overload. An online tool to evaluate signs of autism, ADHD, anxiety and other neurodivergent traits can be a helpful, private way to start this process. These tests compile questions related to common characteristics of various neurotypes. The results can offer a preliminary indication of whether your profile aligns with neurodivergence and if seeking formal assessments for specific conditions might be beneficial. It's about gaining clarity on your unique neurological makeup.
