Neurodiversity inclusion projects - Specialisterne

Many people with autism have an ability for detail that is unsurpassed. We call this ability, added to others that tend to occur in these people, the “advantage of autism” and it is our key argument – but not the only one – in favor of the inclusion of these people in companies.

All the people who provide our services to companies have a condition within the autism (or Asperger) spectrum or some other within what is known as neurodiversity. At Specialisterne we see talent beyond diagnosis, and we value those characteristics by focusing these people on tasks that they like and in which they excel, turning what is often considered a disadvantage into the “advantage of autism”.

Tasks that other people often find boring, repetitive, or overly demanding in some ways are a perfect fit for our talented employees, who truly enjoy these types of jobs and bring their ability to:

• Pay close attention to details
• Concentrating for longer periods than usual
• Persevere in repetitive tasks or actions
• Recognize patterns
• Detect deviations in data, information and systems

But including people with autism has an impact that goes beyond just bringing in talent. Among other reasons, our clients experience -and we help to measure- a high loyalty of this talent, a professional growth of the teams and especially of those responsible for those teams, plus all the benefits of carrying out a project that also has a social impact. , generates brand pride and can be perfectly aligned with the CSR policy or compliance with the Sustainable Development Goals of a company.
