  • Neurodiversity – Learn how neurodiversity can bring many strengths to companies; from attention to detail to straightforwardness and ‘out-of-the-box’ thinking!

  • Intersectionality – Achieve a more authentic understanding of the issues different groups face

 

  • Aligning the D&I Strategy with Business Goals – Gain a better understanding of how D&I is not just something you do to ‘look good’ or ‘sound nice’, but how it is something that impacts revenue and has tangible results
