About this listen

How can HR build truly inclusive cultures for neurodiverse talent—beyond basic accommodations? Christine welcomes Mike Lamm, Chief People Officer at RethinkFirst, to unpack practical ways organizations can support neurodivergent employees and the caregivers who stand beside them. From structured hiring to manager playbooks and on-demand behavioral support, Mike shows how neuro-affirming practices lift performance, retention, and wellbeing.

“It’s not about accommodating—it's about investing to unlock everyone’s potential.”

This conversation covers:

  • What neurodiversity means (origin, scope) and why ~20% of today’s workforce is directly affected
  • Concrete hiring tactics: skills-based assessments, predictable interview steps, clear expectations
  • Manager playbooks: direct, observable feedback; aligning communication and work
  • A forward vision: connecting neurodiversity training + personalized support to measurable business outcomes
