Abstract
Neurodiversity refers to natural variations in human brain and cognitive functioning. It offers an essential lens through which individual differences at the workplace can be understood. The number of neurodiverse employees is on the rise, as organizations shift toward greater openness to diversity in general. Focusing on Attention-Deficit/Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) as an illustrative example of neurodiversity, this chapter reviews it within the organizational context/literature and offers suggestions for future research from a theoretical and methodological perspective. Additionally, this chapter suggests the practical significance of building knowledge on neurodiversity in the workplace, and the importance of framing neurodiversity as a strength rather than a liability.
