Outcome
Award-winning training, making a real difference to how we work with one another
Diversity of minds means diversity in ideas. That’s why raising awareness and understanding of neurodiversity, is an important area of focus for us as a firm with 25,000 people across the UK, as we continue to build a truly inclusive culture.
Setting the scene
Last year, we launched our #EnablingEveryone campaign, to give all our people the resources to enhance their awareness of disability and neurodiversity and transform this into action. Designed in response to feedback from our people, the campaign aims to increase knowledge and acceptance in the workplace.
Our work
Our award-winning new training, ‘Great Minds (don’t think alike)’, developed alongside our DAWN (Disability Awareness Network) group, explores the topic of neurodiversity with a variety of bitesized resources, featuring compelling stories and experiences from our own people. Designed to build understanding of what neurodiversity is and what it means to be neurodivergent, the programme aims to help all of our people develop the skills they need to be inclusive leaders and ensure that everyone feels they belong and are valued for who they are.
“The training empowers our people to be observant, curious and proactive in challenging their ways of working to be inclusive, as opposed to relying on someone sharing that they are disabled or neurodivergent.”

Our impact
More than 4,000 of our people have engaged with this training so far. It’s helping to foster understanding and empathy, empowering our teams to be comfortable and confident in collaborating and building a working environment in which everyone can thrive. This, in turn, is enabling our neurodivergent colleagues to feel more confident in day-to-day interactions, as well as sharing what support they need to help them achieve their potential.
