What happens when great minds DON’T think alike?

Most of already know that diverse teams are more productive and build better tech products. But Neurodiversity is still relatively new to the conversation when talking about DEI in the workplace. Since the prevalence of Neurodivergence in tech is almost double that of the general population, technical leaders have a position of power and responsibility to consciously build neuroinclusive environments. 

In this talk, you’ll learn about a DEI topic in a way that you’ve never seen before. Parul will be taking you on a trip down memory lane to learn about Neurodiversity in technical leadership through concepts from nostalgic video games such as Mario, Pacman and Tetris. She’ll use case studies to demonstrate different scenarios faced by technical leaders and best practices to support and embrace neurodiversity in the workplace.
