ToHealth & Concept Northern proudly supports Neurodiversity in Business and the invaluable work they do.
Neurodiversity in Business (NiB) is an industry forum to support the participation of neurodivergent individuals in the workplace recently launched at the Houses of Parliament.
The organisation, led by Dan Harris (Chief Executive Officer) draws upon the cumulative knowledge of neurodivergent experts and leading companies to share best practice and improve the employment and experience of the neurodiverse workforce.
Speaking upon admission to NiB, ToHealth Managing Director, Kerry-Dene Ihlenfeldt, said:
“While many businesses recognise the advantages of employing staff with neurodiverse challenges, sometimes the reality of providing a balanced and inclusive workplace can be difficult. At ToHealth, we aim to act as the leading neurodiversity provider, offering seamless links between all members of staff so everyone in the organisation understands the difficulties neurodivergent employees face. It provides training, not only to those with learning difficulties, but also to other members of staff so that the entire organisation can work together cohesively – with everyone playing to their own individual strengths.
“We are passionate about making going to work an enjoyable, fulfilling experience for everyone and our highly-skilled team help companies promote better mental health and physical fitness in the workplace through diversity and inclusion training, and workplace coaching. NiB is a incredibly important step towards awareness and acceptance of neurodiversity everywhere and we are thrilled to support this important work.”
As ToHealth and Concept Northern joined NiB, Dan J Harris, CEO said:
