Today I am lucky enough to be joined By Natalia, who along with others from IBM feature in my upcoming book with Prof Amanda Kirby 'Neurodiversity at Work'.

Natalia Lyckowski, is the Global Chair for IBM's Neurodiversity Business Resource Group (BRG). Natalia is a self-advocate who has led several global initiatives at IBM leading to increased awareness and acceptance for neurodivergent individuals.

IBM has improved hiring practices in 5 continents and 9 countries, provided neurodiversity acceptance training in 30+ countries, and educated over 1,900 IBMers for their Neurodiverity101 educational course.

We discuss:

- How do we create safe spaces and helping others embrace the power of diversity of thought.
- What is the role of a Global Neurodiversity BRG Lead at IBM
- What resources can business leaders implement to support neurodivergent professionals.
- What does a company-wide neurodiversity global program look like and what are the benefits and outcomes.
