Neurodiversity
in the
Workplace.
A practical, nervous system-led workshop for HR leads and line managers. Built to change what your people do on Monday morning, not just what they know.
Most neurodiversity training starts with a list
of labels.
That is a useful starting point. But it is not where understanding begins.
Understanding begins with this: every neurodivergent behaviour that disrupts a team meeting, misses a deadline, or creates friction has a nervous system explanation. That is not an excuse. It is a doorway.
When managers understand what is happening underneath the behaviour, they stop reacting. They start responding. This workshop gives them the tools to do exactly that.
The STILL Method was developed by Stuart Thompson, a social worker and anxiety specialist with over 20 years of practice. Stuart has brittle bone disease, uses a wheelchair, and has experienced significant hearing loss. He knows what it costs to navigate a world that was not built for your nervous system.
That is not background detail. It is the reason this workshop does not feel like a corporate training course.
It was recognised as one of the UK's leading approaches to anxiety and nervous system work by The Guardian and the BBC, and is delivered by an IPHM and ACCPH accredited training provider.
Not awareness.
Understanding.
What your managers will be able to do
by the end.
Every outcome is practical. Every one is applicable without a policy change, a budget request, or a formal diagnosis in the room.
- Describe the most common neurodivergent profiles in a workplace context, including ADHD, autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia, and dyscalculia
- Explain how the nervous system underpins neurodivergent behaviour at work
- Identify the difference between a performance issue and a nervous system response
- Apply practical adjustments to how they communicate, structure tasks, and run meetings
- Use person-first and identity-first language appropriately and without assumption
- Create a psychologically safer environment without needing a formal diagnosis to begin
3.5 hours.
Eight sessions.
Five profiles.
All workplace-relevant.
This is not a clinical lecture. Each profile is covered in functional terms: what it looks like at work, what it does not mean, and what managers can do differently.
Attention regulation, time blindness, hyperfocus, impulsivity, and the myth of laziness.
Sensory processing, social communication differences, pattern thinking, and the performance tax of masking.
Processing written information, working memory, and the verbal strength that written tasks do not capture.
Motor coordination, spatial awareness, organisation of thought, and the energy cost of tasks others do automatically.
Numerical processing, sequencing, and the impact on reporting, budgets, and data-heavy roles.
They leave with tools.
Not just awareness.
Every participant leaves with something tangible. Not a slide deck they will never open. A reference card they will keep. A commitment they have written in the room.
