Culture by Neurodesign is the podcast where I share expert insights and conversations with guests on how cognitive inclusion - inspired by neurodivergence - transforms working cultures. The result? Teams that are happier, healthier, and perform at their best.

Drawing on practices that support neurodivergent thinking styles like autism, ADHD, and dyslexia, I explore how leaders can design resilient, innovative environments where every team member - whatever their neurostyle - contributes their best and thrives.

Episode 35: What tech got right with autism at work programs — and where we go next
