To brighten your Friday! My favourite one is 'I have great hair!'!
As well as securing lots of jobs this week, our empower and @CapitaPlc participants have created a list of positive affirmations. We thought you may like to see them! Which is your favourite? #UKSPF #Neurodiversity #socialvalue

Thanks @david_crozier Yes, it was an interesting and important discussion.
Today's @BBCTalkback with @williamcrawley is well worth a listen on autism, ADHD and neurodiverse diagnosis in adulthood and the world of work. The listener comments from those in the ND community are invaluable. Go to 36:34
Well done @SpecialistsNI

Lovely to be included in today's FT along with Jonathan McMurray:
“The managers I’ve worked with are supportive and curious,” he says of his job at Microsoft in Belfast. “There’s not a one-size-fits-all and my input is welcomed.”
