Carole Williamson: Creating A Work Environment Where Neurodiverse People Can Thrive.

Carole Williamson, In-Work Support and Training Officer at Durham County Council, explains why embracing neurodiversity in the workplace benefits everyone.
In this episode, we explore how organisations can better support neurodivergent talent and create truly inclusive workplaces.
In this episode you will learn:
- How neurodiversity reflects natural variations in human cognition, yet traditional workplaces often exclude talent
- Why many neurodivergent individuals mask their traits and how underdiagnosis affects especially autistic women
- How education, practical accommodations, and skills-focused hiring can foster inclusion
- How the "Four S’s" framework — See, Support, Safety, and Success — creates a neuro-inclusive environment
Listen for practical strategies to make workplaces more inclusive and supportive for all employees.
