Why Neuroinclusive Teams Thrive: Reducing Burnout, Friction, and Miscommunication at Work
 
Burnout, miscommunication, and disengagement are often treated as individual problems instead of workplace design problems. In this keynote, Gill Forth explores why neuroinclusive teams are more effective, collaborative, and resilient. Through practical examples and research-backed insights, attendees will learn how flexibility, psychological safety, and accessible communication reduce friction at work and help teams thrive.

 
AI Won’t Fix Broken Workplaces. It Will Scale Them.

Organizations are rapidly adopting AI productivity tools while simultaneously removing the flexibility that made work more accessible for neurodivergent employees during the pandemic. Those two trends are colliding in ways most leaders are completely unprepared for. AI has the potential to support productivity, accessibility, and innovation, especially for neurodivergent workers. But it will not fix toxic cultures, unrealistic workloads, poor leadership, or inaccessible systems. In this keynote, Gill Forth explores the growing tension between AI and workplace inclusion, challenging leaders to ask whether they are using AI to reduce friction or simply accelerate burnout, surveillance, and inequity at scale.
 
Why Psychological Safety Fails in Most Organizations

​Most organizations say they value psychological safety, but their systems, leadership practices, and workplace norms often undermine it. In this keynote, Gill Forth explores why psychological safety fails in practice, especially for neurodivergent and marginalized employees, and what leaders must change to build teams rooted in trust, honesty, accountability, and genuine inclusion.​
