Every team includes people who think, communicate, and work differently. Yet many workplace expectations still assume everyone works the same way. When managers lack practical ways to support these differences, the resulting gaps can show up as miscommunication, performance challenges, and disengagement that may ultimately affect retention. 

The answer isn’t necessarily a new policy. Sometimes, it’s the everyday practices that help more employees succeed. 

In this session, RethinkCare’s Louis Chesney, Program Director, Neurodiversity, and Mike Civello, Principal, Global Neurodiversity Strategy, share practical strategies managers can use to better understand and support neurodivergent employees through clearer communication, greater predictability, thoughtful flexibility, and effective feedback. 

What you'll learn

  • Ways to communicate more clearly and build greater predictability into daily work 

  • Approaches to offering flexibility without lowering expectations 

  • Techniques for giving specific, actionable feedback 

  • Workplace practices that respect individual needs and different ways of thinking and working 

This session is designed for leaders across HR, Benefits, Total Rewards, Employee Experience, and People functions.
