Episode 35: What tech got right with autism at work programs — and where we go next
Autism-at-work programs from companies like SAP and Microsoft proved the business case for hiring neurodivergent talent—with dramatic gains in innovation, productivity, and retention. But as today's workforce evolves, these diagnosis-based programs no longer scale. In this blog, Dr. Lisa Colledge explores why the next chapter of neurodiversity inclusion in the workplace must go beyond formal programs. With over 50% of Gen Z identifying as neurodivergent, organizations must shift from compliance to culture—embedding cognitive inclusion, flexible design, and neuro-inclusive leadership into everyday team practices. Featuring insights from ASML, EY, and the FIT Framework (Fair, Intentional, Team-Minded), this post offers a blueprint for creating high-performing, neurodiverse teams—without needing diagnosis-based initiatives. Perfect for founders, team leads, and HR professionals ready to future-proof their teams through inclusive design and diverse thinking.
