Episode 42: Neurodivergent thinking is a business strategy, not a sympathy play with Robert Annis

What if the very skills your business is missing are ones you’re accidentally screening out?

In this high-energy, thought-provoking discussion with organizational psychologist Robert Annis, we cover:

• The unexpected strengths of autistic team members, far beyond the tech stereotype.

• Cognitive diversity as a business asset for growth and innovation, not just a compliance checkbox.

• Our role in making the case to leaders that they should stop overengineering processes which stifles innovation.

• Signs of a cultural shift happening in forward-looking organizations, with a focus on the code deceiphering skills of UK’s GCHQ.

This episode is for any leader who wants to consider new ideas to unlock the full potential of their team.
