Another great part of Learning at Work Week when we had Mel Francis (courtesy of @everymindatwork) lead a webinar on neurodiversity. She educated us on the evolution of 'neurodiversity', dispelled some myths and gave us some practical advice on how to be neuroinclusive. We really enjoyed this talk and came away with a lot more knowledge!
