Neurodiversity in coaching
Listen now
Description
In this episode, you’ll hear Glyn Fussell in conversation with Anna Jaques as they discuss neurodiversity in coaching.  Anna is People & Change Director for Bettys, part of the Bettys and Taylors Group.  Neurodiversity is a hot topic in the news of late, highlighted by celebrity diagnoses and more recognition and acceptance in general. However, there is quite a bit of mis-reporting and mis-understanding about what neurodiversity actually means.  We explore what neurodiversity is, how it is perceived, how it relates to the way people see the world around them, and what  it means to be neurodiverse aware as a coach. We also touch on why our whole person coaching approach is really suited to working with neurodiverse clients when coaching.
