HR Focus (8): How to nurture neurodivergent talent
Description
If you’re in need of neuroinclusive success strategies and advice, look no further. This episode of HR Focus features insights from the founder and CEO of an award-winning business in which nearly half (47%) of the workforce identifies as neurodiverse.
In conversation with HR magazine's editor, Emma Philpott MBE, who founded the cybersecurity firm IASME Consortium, offers practical advice for attracting, supporting and retaining neurodivergent talent. She also explains exactly how nurturing neurodivergent talent has supercharged IASME’s workplace culture – IASME currently ranks among the top 100 medium-sized organisations on the UK’s Best Workplaces™ List 2026.
The episode addresses:
- The importance of accommodating individual needs, rather than making and acting on generalisations;
- Why labels relating to neurodiversity aren’t always helpful;
- Philpott’s personal motivation to build a neuroinclusive and diverse organisation; and more.
