Distinguished professor and author Dr. Temple Grandin explores the power of different thinking styles and how neurodivergent minds see, solve, and create in ways the world urgently needs. Joining her is neuroinclusive workplace strategist and author Dave Thompson to share how to design workplaces and communities where autistic, ADHD, and other neurodivergent adults can thrive on their own terms. Guiding the conversation is moderator Tiffany Fixter, founder of Brewability, who brings the perspective of an inclusive small-business leader creating meaningful, community-rooted jobs for disabled and neurodivergent adults. Together they will connect real-life stories with concrete ideas for changing systems, expectations, and environments so that great minds of all kinds can flourish in work and everyday life.
