Feeling overwhelmed trying to make your organisation neuroinclusive?

Youā€™re passionate about inclusion but stretched thin. You might be running an ERG alongside your day job, or be the person your whole team turns to for Neurodiversity answers, or simply someone who wants to create change.

Meanwhile, the world is shifting fast. AI is changing how we work. Political narratives are shifting how inclusion is viewed. The pressure to "get it right" is growing.

Scaling neuroinclusion feels crucial ā€“ but also complex and easy to get wrong.

You canā€™t do it all alone. But you can lead the change ā€“ with the right support.

The NeuroNavigatorĀ® programme is run by me, Jess Meredith

Let me start with what Iā€™m not (not your typical way of doing things!)Ā 

  • Iā€™m not a medical professional.
  • Iā€™m not a scientist.Ā 
  • Iā€™m not a therapist.

All wonderful professions and bring really valuable expertise to our world.

However, my focus is on the practical side of neurodiversity and how differences in how we operate and work can impact collaboration at work.Ā 

Iā€™ve worked in numerous roles in large organisations, startups and scale ups. I know what the barriers are and I know how to break them down. I know what itā€™s like to be so passionate about creating change in an organisation but struggling to make it happen. Iā€™ve been there. Iā€™ve run ERGs. Iā€™ve worked in EDI. I really do get it.

I specialise in simplifying complex topics, and enabling people to create change with simple, step by step approaches. My methods resonate because theyā€™re not scientific. I will explain what you need to know about neurodiversity as it relates to the workplace. But I wonā€™t bamboozle you with more knowledge and science than you need.

Photo of Jess Meredith standing in front of a beach hut. She is wearing a Differing Minds branded black jumper and she is laughing. Her curly hair is blowing across her face. The beach hut has vertical stripes in pastel colours.

And I do all this in a fun way. You wonā€™t just be listening to me talking, thatā€™s too boring to create the change we actually need! Itā€™s packed full of interactive exercises and the chance to ā€˜doā€™ rather than just ā€˜listenā€™.

Iā€™m also neurodivergent. And have neurodiverse children. So I bring lived experience alongside many years of professional experience.

Iā€™ve worked with Accenture, the NHS, the Adecco Group, Deustche Bank, Virgin Media O2 and countless others.Ā 

Iā€™m so looking forward to working with you!

What did our previous NavigatorsĀ® say?

Don't just trust me. Here's what our previous cohort had to say about their experience on the programme.

I'm learning!

"No matter how much we think we know about neurodiversity, or neurodivergent colleagues, these sessions have always made me think a little bit differently. So thank you."

I'm buzzing!

"I'm buzzing after every session and it gets my mind thinking even more as to what else can be done to improve general well being and inclusion."

It's refreshing!

"It's refreshing to be coached on neurodiversity and know that I have some new tools and information to guide me in my new role as co chair for our neurodiversity network."
