Monique Springer - Embracing Neurodiversity in the Software Industry

Neurodiversity refers to the range of differences in how individuals cognitively process the world around them. Neurodiversity is an umbrella term that includes (but is not limited to) autism spectrum disorders, ADHD, dyslexia, dyscalculia, and Tourette's disorder. Individuals with these differences make up a large portion of the population and it is found that the software industry seems to be an attractive industry for individuals with these differences, therefore it is imperative to embrace this population to better understand their differences, the strengths that they bring to the table, and the common difficulties that they may face in a workplace setting.
