Wayne introduces his board advisory — neurodiversity work.

What board advisory covers

Board and NED briefings. ExCo strategy sessions. Risk framing for regulators, investors and public scrutiny. Governance design for neurodiversity as a workforce KPI. Succession planning that accounts for neurodivergent leadership talent. External narrative — annual report, ESG disclosures, investor communications.

Why boards engage Wayne

Twenty-five years inside FTSE100 transformation, chartered credentials and lived experience of ADHD and dyslexia. Fluency in the language of Chair, SID and NED — the seat that owns oversight, not delivery. External validation from major UK neurodiversity organisations.

How the work runs

Retained or single-engagement. Board briefings scheduled around the board calendar. NED one-to-ones on request. ExCo sessions co-owned with the CHRO. Discreet, board-appropriate, board-paced.
