AuDHD Joy consulting for employers
AuDHD Joy consulting supports employers to harness the power of neurodivergence whilst managing risks of burnout, quiet quitting and exits.
The rise of employees realising they’re neurodivergent has implications for organisations
HR
HR needing to update its knowledge, processes and policies to both support neurodivergent employees and protect the business.
Neurodivergent employees quiet quitting, taking time off sick due, or leaving entirely, as a result of struggling with disabling work environments.
More employers being taken to court and successfully sued for (often inadvertent) disability discrimination against neurodivergent employees.
Business
Businesses failing to leverage the ‘spiky skillset’ of neurodivergent staff, wasting potential, time and money.
Line managers lacking the skills to get the best out of their neurodiverse teams, with an increase in employee relations cases and falling morale.
Businesses worrying about the cost of reasonable adjustments, not realising that most adjustments are cheap or free.
I can help
I’m a neuroinclusion consultant, with a 15+ year career in HR and talent management, and a background in occupational psychology.
My three key strengths make me unique:
HR
I have built nearly every part of the employee lifecycle in my career
When faced with an employee issue, I identify root causes, as opposed to fixing the symptoms
I forge solutions that are fast, cost-effective and solve multiple problems
Psychologist
I have an MSc in Occupational Psychology and I have spent my career building solutions based on solid psychological principles
I am adept at speaking both ‘business and ‘neurodivergent’ languages
I can defuse escalating tensions before they become risks to the business
AuDHD
Thoroughness - I don’t cut corners and I don’t make ill-informed guesses
Empathic directness - I see things from multiple perspectives, but I don’t pander to anyone
Innovative - I find solutions that align to your KPIs in new ways
