I’m Dr Lisa Colledge.
As I applied what I was learning in practice, the results came fast: sharper decisions, stronger engagement, improved performance, and teams that could absorb disruption without breaking.
Today, I help ambitious leaders build neuro-inclusive performance infrastructure – cultures and systems that consistently deliver wellness with high performance and resilience:
Fix performance leaks by redesigning how work happens, not by working harder.
Replace dependency on heroic leaders with shared accountability and collective clarity.
Turn different neurostyles into the engine for innovation, engagement, and adaptability.
Together, we design a new leadership playbook that embeds neuro-inclusion into everyday performance, making it measurable, scalable, and sustainable.
I’m the creator of Neuro-Inspired Teams™, which is powered by my Future-Ready Team Pathway™ — a proven, evidence-based approach for turning invisible work into visible, measurable impact through neuro-inclusive design.ct.
Recently named Corporate Livewire’s Leadership Consultant of the Year 2025, and one of the Top 10 Entrepreneurs Shaping the World, I combine a scientific doctorate and Masters degree with decades of real-world leadership experience across cross-functional, multi-cultural teams.
When my son was diagnosed as autistic, I stepped up to lead a global, corporate neurodivergence network. That was the moment I realized the potential of neuro-inspired leadership: not just to support individuals, but to transform entire teams.
"Neuro-inspired design is a shortcut to more engaged cultures, stronger performance today, and the resilience to keep winning tomorrow."

Personal insight to professional mission
In 2021, I learned that my son’s developmental challenges were caused by autism with learning difficulties. At that point, the diagnosis was a relief. It gave me a roadmap. Small, conscious changes in how we engaged with him made a huge difference, enabling him to learn to speak, make friends, and read and write.
That insight opened another door. A colleague introduced me to the Enabled employee network, championing inclusion for people with disabilities. It became a live laboratory for neuro-inclusive design — an opportunity to test how changing language, leadership behaviours and systems could unlock hidden talent. I expected to help a few autistic colleagues, but I was astounded by how many people connected and how deeply they responded.
And I discovered something transformative: when you design in anticipation of neurodivergent extremes, everyone benefits.
Neurodivergent employees - far beyond just autistic colleagues - thrived. And so did everyone else.
Those experiences led me to create this consultancy, focused on embedding neuro-inclusion as performance infrastructure — helping leaders move beyond reactive, individual accommodations towards designing cultures that work for every neurostyle.
I don’t see neuro-inclusion as a nice-to-have skill. It’s a leadership capability you can build, and a framework to build working cultures where engagement grows, performance compounds, and resilience is built in.
My mission is to help organizations design neuro-inclusion as a strategic capability — enabling every person to contribute their unique value, and every leader to support their neurodiverse talent through team systems intentionally designed to enable difference.
