What if the key to higher productivity and better products lies in a talent pool we currently overlook? Our typical workplace often creates invisible barriers that cause us to miss out on neurodivergent talent. In this session, we will explore some common myths about autism and demonstrate how to implement principles of inclusive design in team collaboration. You will learn that creating an environment that is clear and predictable for autistic individuals can lead to a more effective and less stressful experience for everyone. The outcome is not only happier employees but also more innovative products.
