Proud to provide practical neurodiversity support for the HR Ninjas community.

Tuesday 29th September | 13:00 - 14:00

Recruiting fairly doesn’t mean lowering standards. It means removing unnecessary barriers so talented people have the opportunity to demonstrate what they can do.

Join Clare Mottram and Helen Musgrove for a practical webinar exploring how to create hiring processes that are fairer and more inclusive for neurodivergent candidates while improving the experience for everyone. Together, they’ll discuss common barriers, the legal considerations around reasonable adjustments, and practical changes that can help organisations attract, assess and retain talented people.

Tuesday 22nd October | 12:30 - 13:20

Reasonableness is a triangulation between the needs of the individual, the demands of the role and the resources available within the environment.

In this session, we will discuss:

- The rationale behind many of the most popular workplace adjustments
- What we know – and don’t know – about their success rates, to help you weigh up cost and benefit
- The risks of lowering standards rather than providing the right scaffolding and support
- The importance of high-quality conversations rather than relying on tick lists

The aim of adjustments is to optimise performance so that a disabled person can thrive, succeed and progress in their role. This should be a win/win, but has sadly become more of a zero sum game in many workplaces.

In this webinar, Dr Nancy Doyle and Gunjan Odedra will explore how we can change that – helping employers approach reasonableness with greater confidence and create adjustments that work for both individuals and organisations.

If you've ever wondered how you can:

• Better understand neurodivergent strengths and challenges
• Have more informed conversations about workplace adjustments
• Support performance and wellbeing with greater confidence
• Build a more neuroinclusive workplace

...this session is for you.

Join Jess Sollom and Drew Goddard for an engaging conversation on employability, neurodiversity, and creating pathways to meaningful work.

This webinar will cover common challenges neurodivergent people face during the employment journey, the strengths neurodivergent employees bring to the workplace, and simple adjustments that can improve outcomes for both individuals and organisations.

In this webinar, Genius Within leaders Leah Callaghan, Head of HR, and Helen Musgrove, Head of Consulting and Business Psychologist, will share how we apply our own principles in practice, from recruitment and onboarding through to performance, wellbeing, and culture.

 Join Dr Nancy Doyle as she celebrates her 50th birthday with a conversation about neurodiversity in women at work.

Neurodivergence, especially ADHD, often shows up differently in women and girls than in other genders. Because of this, many women are overlooked or identified later in life.

Drawing on her professional expertise and lived experience as an ADHDer, Nancy will explore the highs and lows of navigating the workplace as a neurodivergent woman, and why understanding these differences matters for building more inclusive workplaces. 

The session explored concerns around neurodiversity and performance, showing that removing workplace barriers improves outcomes rather than lowering standards.

It covered evidence-based strategies to maintain high performance, support all employees, and address challenges such as masking and non-disclosure, while unlocking strengths like creativity and analytical thinking.

The focus was on inclusive, effective management that reduces risk and benefits everyone.

In this webinar, Principal Psychologist and Researcher Clare Mottram shares insights from large-scale research exploring neurodivergent traits across thousands of individuals. Join us to discover how shifting from labels to traits can help organisations design more inclusive workplaces that support a wider range of thinking styles.

This webinar explored what employment case law tells us about holding fair and reasonable boundaries when supporting neurodivergent employees.

Covering reasonable adjustments, the risks of over-accommodation, performance and conduct standards, and situations where individual needs clash with role requirements or colleagues.

While practical case studies anchored the session, much of the richest insight came from the live discussion, where complex real-world scenarios highlighted the nuance required to balance compassion with clear, defensible standards. 

This first open webinar delivered through the HR Ninjas and Genius Within partnership was led by Professor Nancy Doyle, Occupational Psychologist and founder of Genius Within.

Discussion covered building manager confidence, managing and optimising performance, and expectations of compromise. Drawing on over 20 years of professional experience and 15 years of line-managing a majority neurodivergent team, Nancy offered an honest, practical perspective that set the tone for future support for HR Ninjas.

Access to Work remains vital, but employers face long delays, inconsistent decisions, and uncertainty. Following the Government review, there is strong support for a more responsive, personalised scheme.

This webinar explores what the changes mean for your organisation and how to support employees while the system remains slow.

This practical session translates neuroinclusion from principle into day-to-day management. Helen will share evidence-based guidance for supporting neurodivergent colleagues and running neuroinclusive teams. She’ll then host a 15-minute case study conversation with Sam Townsend from E.ON, exploring how a large organisation is enabling managers, what’s worked on the ground, and the benefits they’re seeing.
