About this listen

Workplace struggles for neurodistinct employees are rarely caused by a lack of talent. They’re caused by systems that create unnecessary friction and environments that were never designed for cognitive diversity. In this episode of Your Transformation Station, Grant Harris, MBA, CDE, examines why neurodiverse employees often face preventable barriers, how traditional performance models fail them, and the measurable organizational costs of burnout, disengagement, and turnover. The conversation clarifies the critical difference between accommodating individuals and redesigning systems, showing why training, perks, and surface‑level inclusion efforts often fail to improve engagement or retention. When workflows are misaligned, expectations unclear, or environments overloaded with friction, employees disengage — even in high‑performing teams. Key themes include: Why neurodistinct employees feel overwhelmed in high‑friction environments How outdated performance models fail to support cognitive diversity The link between poor workplace design, burnout, and turnover How system‑level redesign improves culture, retention, and performance This episode takes a diagnostic approach to neuroinclusive workplace strategy, focusing on outcomes, not sentiment. It’s for leaders, managers, and organizations serious about reducing burnout, improving retention, and building workplaces where every brain can thrive.
