About this event

Join this practical and honest session with Peter Yeomans, Lead User Researcher at Wise, as he breaks down what neurodiversity really looks like in design teams — from daily challenges to untapped strengths. You’ll learn how to recognise and support ADHD and autism at work (in yourself or others), create team dynamics where neurodivergent people can thrive, and build inclusive cultures that go beyond performative allyship. Whether you're a design leader, a parent, or neurodivergent yourself, this session will leave you with tools, language, and clarity to lead better.

*Limited seats*

​You’ll learn:

​✅ 1. Leading Neurodivergent Colleagues with Confidence

​Learn how to support and get the best out of neurodivergent team members—from communication styles to working rhythms—so everyone can do their best work without burning out.

​🧠 2. Embracing Your Own Neurodiverse Identity

​Whether you’ve been diagnosed or just suspect you’re wired differently, you’ll hear how to work with your brain, not against it. This part is all about self-acceptance, self-awareness, and knowing your strengths and challenges.

​🤝 3. Building a Diverseability Network at Work

​See how internal communities can make a real difference—creating space for neurodivergent employees to feel seen, supported, and safe. Learn how to start one or support one as a leader or ally.

​⚡️ 4. ADHD in Tech: It’s Closer Than You Think

​Understand how ADHD shows up in product, UX, and Agile teams—and why these environments often attract neurodivergent minds. Recognising this helps teams work better together and build more sustainable practices.

​👨‍👩‍👧 5. Supporting Parents of Neurodivergent Kids

​Being a parent to a neurodivergent child while juggling a design job is tough. Learn how workplaces can show up for parents—through flexibility, empathy, and better support systems.
