Hate to be another person with another anecdote.

But…

I manage several neurodivergent people and to be honest they are the best thing about our company.

They lead in areas that neurotypicals do not which often is being one of the few to speak out when something appears to be wrong or is wrong.

Specifically…

- issues that impact women, ethnic minorities & lgbtqia

- issues that impact healthcare coverage for pay

- issues that impact compensation for themselves and others

we about had a riot when they found out our org was not matching inflation.



I've had similar experience managing ND people. I'll be more than happy to repeat the experience!
