    Aug 25 2025

    What does it really take to build a workplace where everyone feels valued and included—especially when it comes to supporting neurodiverse employees? In this episode of The Quiet And Strong Podcast, host David Hall sits down with Grant Harris, founder and President of GTH Consulting, to explore the transformative power of neurodiversity in today’s organizations. Grant, a certified diversity executive and three-time published autistic author, shares his personal journey of late autism diagnosis and how it shaped not just his life but also his approach to helping organizations move from compliance to true community.

    Listeners will discover the real meaning of neurodiversity, why it matters far beyond legal compliance, and how businesses can unlock greater efficiency, equity, and innovation by embracing all types of thinkers. Grant introduces actionable frameworks, challenges common misconceptions about neurodiversity, and explains why terms like "neurodistinct" can create more meaningful, human-centered inclusion. You'll also hear practical strategies for cultivating psychological safety, building genuine community in the workplace, and moving past the myth of “normal” to celebrate what makes each person unique.

    Tune in for candid conversation, fresh insights, and plenty of “aha” moments—whether you’re a leader, HR professional, or someone curious about the positive impact of neurodiversity at work. Learn how to recognize and support the unique strengths every team member brings, and be strong.
