Employers are becoming increasingly aware of the need to create workplaces and cultures which value and respect diversity, including neurodiversity. Our partner Alacoque Marvin takes a closer look at the recently published guide by the CIPD titled Neuroinclusion at Work which is a good starting point for leaders and managers seeking to create a neuroinclusive culture. https://bit.ly/49WPukj #neuroinclusive #neurodiversity #neuroinclusion

As a DEIB-Disability consultant, the first question I inevitably get asked is "What's the B for?" And every time it happens, I get excited all over again to explain what Belonging has to do with Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. For me, as a female, multi-disabled, leadership professional, Belonging is the crucial end goal of all the work that I do. I have been in search of Belonging as an employee my entire working life. Since I was never able to find it, I decided to partner with companies and organizations to help them create Belonging in their workplaces. But, understanding how belonging fits into the greater DEI picture is something that requires a specific reminder: Belonging and Inclusion are not interchangeable. Because while inclusion is being invited to the party, belonging means you feel like you are meant to be there once you arrive. True inclusion, along with apparent diversity and established equity, is just one step in the journey to the greater goal of belonging. We already know that DEIB initiatives have an impact on organizations as a whole. We know they create higher engagement rates and longer retention rates, which lead to improved revenue streams. Additionally, we know that companies with obviously diverse leadership and executive teams often also see their profits increase. And perhaps most importantly, when Belonging is created in a workplace, it attracts more talented, highly skilled, professionals. Ready to tackle some Belonging with your DEI Disability initiatives? I'm just an email or DM away. Looking for more ways to create AND sustain #DisabilityInclusion in the workplace? Hit the ‘follow’ button! I’m an openly Autistic #DEIB Facilitator and Speaker on a mission to close the disability leadership gap. Want to make your organization truly #inclusive?

It upsets me that DEI is controversial by those who I know in my different life circles. Sometimes I can say their "sceptism, their fears, their anger, and their ignorance" rub off on me. Yet, deep down, I know we don't all start off on the same footing based on systemic racism, systemic classism, systemic misogyny. Also, no one wants to be left behind- dehumanized, de-valued, seen as other. Why would we not want to include different voices at the table especially around policies. Diversity - why are people afraid of a salad-bowl where people keep their languages, identify with their motherlands as much as their current homelands. Why be afraid of people with different political ideologies, skin colors, religions? I am in an office where we celebrate difference, seek to learn from each other, and build each other up. That means, I love going into work because I feel safe. We all deserve that! I also can say that as the member of the disability community that has hidden disabilities, I have had an amazing experience of learning from those who used chairs and adaptive technology, some who used scribes, from those who needed noise cancelling headphones, and those that needed assistance with organizing due to the effects of a TBI. I myself was able to come in late for some medical appts and have an rep from AANE help me at home and the office so that I was a more effective employee. I often wonder why some of my friends are against DEI given their family members and friends are part of the disability community or the neurodivergent communities. We thrive when we create safety for all.

#belonging is the feeling of being accepted, valued, and connected to a particular group, community, or place. It's about feeling like you fit in and are an integral part of something larger than yourself. #neuroscience suggests that belonging is deeply rooted in the brain's social circuitry, involving regions such as the amygdala, insula, and prefrontal cortex. When we feel a sense of belonging, these areas are activated, triggering feelings of reward and well-being. Conversely, feelings of rejection or isolation can activate stress-related brain regions. Leaders, let’s lead more engage, happier, people.

I am excited to announce I'm a proud contributing author to Ludmila Praslova, Ph.D., SHRM-SCP, Âû's latest edited book "Evidence-Based Organizational Practices for Diversity, Inclusion, Belonging and Equity" which has just hit the shelves. My subject: Increasing Employee Engagement and Productivity by Managing with a Neurodiverse Lens. The timing of the book's publication and the International Day of People with Disabilities (IDPWD) couldn't be better. This isn't a book about disability inclusion alone, it's about evidence-based organizational practices for #DEIB. And if your organization isn't doing neurodivergent and disability inclusion in your #DEI mix, you're doing it wrong! :) #idpwd #Management #OrganizationalCulture #Diversity #Equity #Inclusion #Belonging #EmployeeEngagement #Productivity #ProductivityImprovement #disability #Neurodivergent Lovely to be associated with the brilliant Bernard Bagorio, SHRM-CP, Gena Cox, PhD, Dr. Norlan Hernández Blandón, Debra Kurtz, Julia Phelan, Fernanda Wolburg Martinez, M.

Innovation thrives on diversity. In today's rapidly evolving business landscape, success hinges on harnessing a spectrum of perspectives and approaches. By assembling teams with varied backgrounds and viewpoints, organisations unlock a wealth of creativity and problem-solving prowess. Embracing diversity isn't just about meeting quotas; it's about fostering an environment where individuals feel empowered to challenge conventions and think outside the box. My workshops on inclusivity are tailored to cultivate this culture of innovation, bridging gaps in understanding and celebrating the richness of diverse perspectives in the workplace. Together, let's build workplaces where every voice is heard, and where innovation knows no bounds. #LifeCoach #CareerDevelopment #PersonalGrowth #ProfessionalCoaching #Empowerment #Inclusivity #DiversityandInclusion #Neurodiversity #LGBTQIA #Coaching #SelfImprovement #GoalSetting #Mindfulness #LeadershipDevelopment #WorkplaceWellness #PositiveMindset #SelfDiscovery #ConfidenceBuilding #EmotionalIntelligence #SuccessCoach
