The Canary Code

A Guide to Neurodiversity, Dignity, and Intersectional Belonging at Work

About this book

Create workplaces where neurodivergent talent—your organizational canaries—can thrive, benefiting everyone, with this award-winning guide.

Despite valuable skills and strong work ethics, neurodivergent individuals (such as members of ADHD, autism, Tourette's syndrome, and learning differences communities as well as others who bring different ways of thinking and experiencing life) face significant employment barriers. It means that their unique talents and perspectives are often excluded, and their canary warnings about problems like bullying, ineffective work organization, or ethical slippery slopes that harm all are ignored.

This practical guide helps CEOs, managers, HR leaders, and changemakers build truly inclusive workplaces by addressing systemic problems and improving work for everyone. Drawing on over twenty-five years of global experience and research on uniquely inclusive organizations, the book offers the following tools:

  • An intersectional approach to neuroinclusion
  • Holistic understanding of human differences (social, cognitive, emotional, physical)
  • Comprehensive talent practices from job descriptions to leadership development
  • Global perspectives celebrating diverse neurodivergent voices
  • Actionable strategies for change at any organizational level
With a blend of lived experience, academic rigor, and accessible writing, this groundbreaking work clearly distinguishes between academic, applied, and personal content, allowing readers to navigate the material according to their needs and interests.
