Most businesses are built around one kind of brain.
Usually yours as the founder, and then wonder why their top performers burn out, go silent, or check out while still technically doing their job.
In this episode, we get into what happens when neurodivergent minds hit systems that were never built with them in mind, and what it takes to build a business that works for the humans inside it.
We're joined by Alexis Frank, creator of Governance by Design, and Mark Sones, autistic ADHD leader turned neurodiversity consultant, to break down how hiring, leadership and processes change when you stop pretending everyone thinks the same.
