Meet your trainer:

Maisie Cass

With over 20 years of experience in the neurodiversity space, I specialise in helping organisations build truly inclusive workplaces where all minds can thrive. I've worked across sectors — from start-ups and SMEs to large corporates and public sector teams — delivering practical, thought-provoking training on embedding neuroinclusive practices into day-to-day leadership, recruitment, and workplace culture.

As a CMI Level 7 qualified Equity, Diversity & Inclusion Consultant, my expertise lies in strategic approaches to organisational inclusion. My CPD-accredited

Neurodiversity in the Workplace

course was recognised with a Learning Excellence Award for Outstanding Initiative, and I continue to stay embedded in the latest developments by working closely with HR, L&D, ESG, and EDI teams across the UK.

I know that neurodiversity isn’t always part of the training or background of people leaders — but that’s exactly where I come in. My role is to equip professionals with the understanding and tools they need to support neurodivergent employees with confidence and compassion, and to lead diverse teams boldly, inclusively, and effectively.
