Practical neuroinclusion training for managers, HR and People teams.
A focused 4-hour session on neuroinclusion, wellbeing, mental health and intersectional work design.
SENSA® Neuroinclusion Essentials is designed for organisations that need a practical starting point. It gives managers and People teams the language, confidence and tools to spot friction, support clearer conversations and make work easier to navigate.
This is not generic awareness training. It is a practical introduction to neuroinclusive practice, wellbeing risk and the design of everyday work.
A practical entry point into SENSA®.
Many organisations start by looking for a short neurodiversity or neuroinclusion session. SENSA® Neuroinclusion Essentials meets that need, but does not stop at awareness.
The session helps participants understand where workplace systems create unnecessary friction, how hidden load affects wellbeing, and what managers can do to make expectations, communication and adjustments clearer.
Clear enough to start
Participants leave with plain-English understanding of neurodiversity, mental health boundaries and workplace impact, without being asked to become clinicians.
Practical enough to use
The session focuses on real workplace moments: instructions, meetings, adjustments, workload, wellbeing conversations and manager decisions.
Strong enough to lead somewhere
It introduces the SENSA® lens, helping organisations see where deeper system redesign may be needed.
Neuroinclusion, wellbeing and work design without the waffle.
The session is designed around what managers, HR and People teams actually need to understand and do.
Neurodiversity in plain English
What neurodiversity means at work, why labels are not enough, and why functional impact matters.
Where work creates friction
How recruitment, onboarding, communication, management practice and adjustments can create unnecessary hidden load.
Hidden load and masking
Why people may appear fine while carrying significant effort, and what managers may miss if they only look at visible behaviour.
Wellbeing and burnout risk
How unclear, inconsistent or unpredictable systems can increase stress, exhaustion and avoidable wellbeing risk.
Mental health and distress
What managers should and should not do when someone is struggling, including boundaries, signposting and supportive conversations.
Intersectionality
How neurodivergent experience can overlap with gender, race, menopause, disability, caring responsibilities, class and LGBTQ+ experience.
Reasonable adjustments in practice
How to move adjustment conversations away from fear, delay and inconsistency, and towards clarity and follow-through.
The SENSA® shift
How organisations can move from individual goodwill and one-off training to clearer, more consistent practice.
A focused 4-hour session.
The session is paced, practical and interactive. It can be delivered online or in person.
Neurodiversity without the waffle
Plain-English understanding of neurodiversity, spiky profiles, functional impact and the workplace question.
Where work creates friction
Using the SENSA® Friction Map to spot where systems, processes or manager-dependent practice may be breaking down.
Hidden load, masking and wellbeing
Understanding the effort people may carry quietly, why “fine” does not always mean fine, and how hidden load can affect wellbeing.
Mental health and manager confidence
Clarifying the manager role, supportive conversations, boundaries, signposting and when to involve HR or safeguarding routes.
Intersectionality and lived experience
Exploring why neuroinclusive practice must recognise that people do not bring only one identity or context to work.
Adjustments and clearer communication
Using the CLEAR framework and Better Brief tool to reduce ambiguity, improve expectations and support better follow-through.
Participants leave with tools they can use straight away.
SENSA® Neuroinclusion Essentials is designed to give people practical handles, not just concepts.
SENSA® Friction Map
A simple way to spot where work may be creating unnecessary friction across recruitment, onboarding, communication, management and adjustments.
CLEAR Adjustment Guide
A practical conversation guide for clarifying barriers, listening well, exploring options, agreeing support and reviewing what works.
Better Brief Tool
A simple structure for giving clearer work instructions, setting priorities and reducing reliance on guesswork.
Designed for people who shape everyday work.

The price depends on format, audience size, delivery method and whether the session is adapted for a specific organisational context.
