https://conflictmanagementacademy.com/webinar-rethinking-neurodiversity-in-practice/
About the webinar
Mediators and coaches are increasingly aware of the importance of supporting neurodivergent clients, but how well equipped are we to do this?
In this interactive session, informed by recent research at The University of Sydney, we’ll unpack how neurodivergence is understood in the helping professions and how common assumptions can unintentionally limit autonomy and outcomes for the people we support.
We will think critically about the:
- Various lenses for understanding neurodivergent clients
- Common assumptions that can derail effective practice
- Principles of neuro-affirmative and neuro-inclusive practice.
Audience
Designed for lifelong learners across conflict resolution and support roles – including mediators, conflict-management coaches, counsellors, social workers, HR generalists and medical practitioners. This session welcomes diverse perspectives and levels of experience with neurodivergent clients.
