Critics Review
I’m in awe of Claire for tackling Neurodiversity in the Workplace. Thought-provoking and honest, the book exposes flaws in education, work, family and friendships. Dr Greaves is a legend! I deeply resonated with Val’s journey. Thrilled Paul was mentioned. A must-read! – Dr Venessa Swaby Founder/Director A2ndvoice CIC
Claire writes from the inside, with the clarity of someone who has run a school, built a business and lived every unwritten rule she describes. Honest about privilege, generous with stories, and unmistakably on our side. Long overdue. – Cathy Wassell, Founder & CEO, Autistic Girls Network; Founder & Proprietor, The Haven
A timely, honest and practical guide that moves neurodiversity at work beyond slogans. Claire Farmer brings lived experience, real workplace stories and clear guidance together in a way that will help individuals, managers and organisations do better. – Dr Nasser Siabi OBE, CEO and Co-founder, Microlink PC
A cultural guide on the journey to successful and enjoyable employment. The themes are contemporary, including aspects of PDA, RSD, and burnout in relation to employment, with an emphasis on work-life balance and advice for both employees and employers. * Professor Tony Attwood, PhD, clinical psychologist, Attwood & Garnett Events *
I can highly recommend this book. It is powerful, humane and deeply clarifying. I wish I’d known I was AuDHD and had this book when I began my work journey. It is highly readable, validating and has excellent strategies from lived experience that will really help. – Dr Michelle Garnett - Clinical Psychologist - PhD (Psych), Founder and Director of Attwood & Garnett Events, AuDHD
