Neurodiversity labels – what do we lose or gain? A discussion
Location:
iOH
Presented by Nancy Doyle & Mandy Murphy
Thu 8 January 2026, 10:00 am
Details
A discussion between Professor Nancy Doyle and Occupational Health practitioner and coach, Mandy Murphy.
At a recent leadership conference, Mandy posed the question; –
“Will we ever get to a stage where we can drop the ‘label’, especially for high functioning neurodiversity and where every person will have differences and preferences in the way we work? Knowing how we thrive and what we need to support ourselves is a responsibility for everyone, and it would be good to normalise that. Sometimes labels become a thing to hide behind instead of owning our vulnerabilities. And those without the label could feel left out.”
Nancy gave a great response but would like to delve deeper into the question.
What are your thoughts?
"This was an absolutely brilliant session"
"Absolutely brilliant session - was so thought provoking and great to be sharing and seeing where OH and VR can compliment each other."
