Practical tips for supporting employees with Dyscalculia at work so they feel included, safe and valued

Saison 1 · Épisode 3

mercredi 11 septembre 2024 • Durée 29:23

In today’s diverse workforce, it’s essential for companies to recognise and accommodate the unique needs of employees with various learning differences. One such difference is dyscalculia, a learning disorder characterised by difficulty in understanding and using numerical concepts. While dyscalculia is often associated with challenges in academic settings, its impact extends into the professional realm, affecting tasks such as budgeting, scheduling, and data analysis. In this blog, we’ll explore what dyscalculia is, its implications in the workplace, and strategies that companies can implement to support individuals with dyscalculia.

We interviewed Em Ledger, Product Manager at the BBC about her experiences of interviewing, living and working with Dyscalculia and we share her insights in this article to help you become an inclusive employer where you support prospective employees and your current employees.

Here are some top tips for supporting candidates at recruitment stage:

Ask outright if someone needs additional support by listing potential neurodiverse conditions and adding brackets to explain what each one is. This might encourage someone who isn’t diagnosed to share what they struggle with e.g. if they struggle with numbers but are not aware they have Dyscalculia this opens the dialogue.
Consider what you write on a job advert – does the job you are recruiting for really require a degree. It’s likely you don’t. Try using terminology such as “we welcome people with these skills”/.
Let candidates know the process for the interview – prepping and planning helps people with different requirements.
Give people advance warning – can you provide interview material ahead of time to address key concerns. Do they need to do a task on the spot or can they prep in advance.
Be really clear and open about the process to set them up for success.

How to support employees living with an invisible disability so they feel supported and included

Saison 1 · Épisode 2

mercredi 11 septembre 2024 • Durée 45:40

Meet Susie Bould, a Marketing Manager in the Film Industry living with an invisible disability.

“It took me so long into being disabled to learn all that information that at the start, I just felt shame. And I just felt like, I didn’t want people to know and I didn’t want people to judge me and I was worried, I wouldn’t get employed, I was scared to mention it in interviews. It felt like this big elephant in the room to me… I think It did destroy my self-esteem. I felt very worthless for a long time.”

This is an eye-opening episode about living with an invisible disability, how to navigate work and what you can do as an employer to welcome disabilities and support your team.

Here's what we discussed.

Embracing Creativity and Overcoming Bias

Susie discussed the challenges she faced in her career, particularly around creativity and bias. She recalled an incident where she was told she wasn’t “creative enough,” a feedback that came unexpectedly after she disclosed her disability. Susie’s response highlights the importance of self-belief and confronting unconscious bias:

“I’m not gonna believe you now… I think the thing about unconscious bias is it’s unconscious. You haven’t acknowledged that and absorbed that yourself.”

The Power of Empathy and Management

As a manager, Susie emphasised the significant influence a leader has on their team’s daily life and overall work experience. She takes this responsibility seriously, aiming to provide opportunities for growth and learning:

“I take that responsibility, really seriously. And I want to find ways to give people opportunities, and see them grow and learn.”

Disability and Workplace Efficiency

Susie also spoke about how her experience as a disabled person has made her more efficient and empathetic in the workplace. She believes that the skills developed through managing her disability are highly transferable to her professional life:

Turning Neurodiverse Traits into Business Advantages

mercredi 11 septembre 2024 • Durée 42:59

We spoke to Leadership Coach Cheryl Thompson about her recent Autism and ADHD diagnosis, how neurodiversity has made her a lot of money and how real workplace inclusion means embracing individuality.

5 things you will learn from this podcast episode:

1. Cheryl Thompson shares her experience of being diagnosed with autism and ADHD later in life, and how understanding her neurodiversity has helped her career in finance and leadership coaching.

2. Effective leadership requires understanding human behavior and prioritising employee well-being over just technical skills. Leaders should care about their team members.

3. Neurodiversity can be viewed as a superpower - traits like curiosity, attention to detail, and systemisation can provide career advantages if supported in the right environment.

4.. Workplace inclusivity involves respecting individual differences, avoiding pressure to conform, and creating psychological safety for neurodiverse employees to be their authentic selves.
