Rob Morley, co-founder The Fountain Partnership. Our topic of conversation is #neurodiversity. His condition is #ADHD. We identify a few of the more commonly known #neurodiverse conditions are #Aspergers, #Autism, #Dyslexia with the lens of how do turn these conditions into gifts.

We begin by defining what neurodiversity is and isn't, and how the labels and words we use make all the difference in how we perceive a situation and judge people.

We explore the economic and human arguments for building diverse teams of people - a range of histories, demographics, ethnic, religious, age are great - but unless the team is neurodiverse, there is a grave danger of groupthink and parochialism taking root. Rob and I dig into intentionally hiring for neurodiversity
