At a time of major change, and a move towards programmed decisions increasingly being made by machines, leaders are presented with the opportunity to harness creativity and the input of creative individuals. Neurodiverse individuals are renowned for their creative thinking and problem-solving abilities.

Enterprise is at the juncture where proactive embracing of diversity is becoming an important component of success. Where this has happened there is consistent positive feedback on increased team cohesion and overall performance. Neurodiversity’s core idea is that these neurodevelopmental differences should be recognised and respected as a natural and essential part of human diversity. Many employers and academic studies are now recognising the range of benefits that having more neurodiversity in an organisation can bring in terms of creativity, innovation, and productivity.
