Tea, Coffee, Breakfast Pastries and the opportunity to meet your fellow delegates.
09:00 - 09:10 - Paul Miles - Welcome and Introduction

09:10 - 10:00 - Marc Crawley - Neurodiversity in Recruitment
25% of tech professionals are Neurodivergent. How can we level the playing field? As co-founder and Director of Diversita.co.uk, Marc believes Neurodiversity-inclusion can be not only cost-free, but simple to implement.
Bringing a personal slant to this hot topic, Marc will guide you through an interactive session on Neurodiversity, offering practical tips for implementing inclusive practices in your organisation.
10:00 - 10:10 - Break
A chance to reflect on Marc's talk and prepare for Amy's.
10:10 - 11:00 - Amy Brann - Synaptic Potential
There is a myth that we only use 10% of our brain.
It’s a falsehood that taps into our deep ambition to access more of our brain potential.
The TRUTH?
That everyone has a gap between their current performance and their Whole Brain Potential™.
A gap that can be closed by redesigning the way we work.
Amy will give you a framework for helping your staff access their full potential; shifting high-performance from a rare event to a regular one.
11:00 - 11:10 - Break
A moment to reflect.
11:10 - 11:20 - Alex Taylor - Life After Adjustments
What happens when Neurodiversity is accommodated?
Alex shares how reasonable adjustments changed not only her working environment but her whole life.
11:20 – 11:30 - Closing Statement
Paul will take a moment to reflect on the morning and thank both speakers and delegates.
