Insights
Practical guides on neurodiversity, ADHD and inclusive leadership.
Deep-dives written for the people who actually own this work — CHROs, EDI leads, HR business partners, transformation directors and line managers. Grounded in 25 years of FTSE100 change leadership and lived experience of ADHD and dyslexia.
Showreel — coming soonThese insights are written the way senior leaders and practitioners actually use long-form content: to sharpen a business case before it goes to ExCo, to brief a board committee, to prepare a difficult manager conversation, to shape a policy draft, or to understand where an existing programme is quietly under-delivering. Every article is designed to be defensible — grounded in UK statute, regulator expectations and professional-body guidance from the CIPD, ACAS, the EHRC and, where relevant, the FRC — and paired with practical guidance that survives contact with a real enterprise operating model.
The topic coverage reflects what enterprise clients bring to the practice: ADHD at work, executive ADHD and senior-leader disclosure, leading neurodivergent teams, psychological safety as a workforce discipline, reasonable adjustments as performance tooling rather than compliance theatre, dyslexia and dyspraxia in fee-earning and technical populations, autism at work, neuroinclusive recruitment, adjustments-passport design, workforce data segmentation, and the interaction between neurodiversity and mental health, wellbeing and Access to Work. New pieces are added to reflect what CHRO, HRD, EDI and transformation sponsors are asking about in real engagements.
Use the guides below alongside the service, solution, industry and role pages. Where an insight relates directly to a service or sector, the cross-links point to the relevant practice page — so it is straightforward to move from reading about a topic to scoping the work that would address it inside your organisation.
