Jonathan M Stringer
Why do I do this? because it is fascinating
Like many late diagnosed Neurodivergents, Jonathan Stringer has sampled many walks of life, as he hit the goldilocks problem time and time again. From time as a broker, to being a go kart marshal, nothing ever really seems to fit, there was always a disconnect, difficulties not seemingly encountered by others.
He now knows exactly what the problem was. He was carrying it with him, for it was him. Diagnosed over 12 years ago he has quietly pioneered neurodivergent intrapreneurship within the civil service, with a keen focus on the requirements of neurodivergent spaces, correctly instructing and leveraging ND talents, and above all, utilising insight from his lived experience and coordinating with his neuro-peer’s time and time again from all stations in life.
The New normal
Achieving a human growth mindset for a workforce
You have missed out on the potential of gaming- simulation isn’t just shooting other 14 years olds on xbox. It is now so much more than that, and it had gone main stream. It’s more popular than tv and movies both, because it covers so much more of the human condition than either of those. TV’s and movies are a story. Gaming is being the story. Individual experiences are always of more import to memory and development than merely being instructed in stuff that happened to other people, or what other people did. The brain is just like that, and the whole ethos of all my talks are to get the most out of your grey matter, not just adhere to the myths of productivity that have followed us down through the ages.
Why use me
Only 11% of Autistics are currently employed. The numbers are similar in all other Neurodivergents categories. These are some of the objectively smartest people on the planet, capable of learning a new skill in weeks if not days, and capable of semi regular flashes of creative/insightful brilliance.
Why then do they have such a hard time in the workplace?
The answer is that it is simply inaccessible to them, the environment for them is essentially the same as working in a night club. The lights hurt them, the noise of the open plan offices was painful, the culture and norms were not explained to them at all, and with no way of learning these norms without painful trial and error was a source of constant fear and anxiety and genuine loss of face & status. This is the goal of the Neuro-clarity. Lots of barriers to employment simply do not need to be there in this new age. I can teach you what is hurting your employees in ways they until recently cannot report on with out being classified as crazy.
