Guest: Tara May, CEO of Aspiritech

In our latest episode, Trish and Steve sat down with Tara May, CEO of Aspiritech, a nonprofit with 95% autistic employees, to discuss neurodiversity and the ROI of kindness. Tara shared her journey into neurodiversity after her son's autism diagnosis and spoke about the importance of creating supportive work environments for neurodivergent individuals. We covered multiple practical steps for inclusivity, such as adjusting office environments and communication styles. We also learned more about Aspiritech's services, including software testing and creative services, and encourage businesses of all sizes to embrace neurodiversity for better organizational success.
