Corporate Consultancy

We specialise in training, corporate talks and consultancy, in the areas of Neurodiversity, complex needs, challenging behaviours, inclusion and acceptance

As a company whose primary focus is in Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging, we place particular focus on those with hidden disabilities such as Autism, ADHD and Dyslexia.

Currently, 1 in 7 people in Ireland are considered to be Neurodivergent. The chances are you are already employing a person with a hidden disability. Therefore, it is vitally important for organisations to gain knowledge in this area to maintain that competitive advantage.

According to a recent study carried out by Irish Jobs and AsIAm in 2021, there are approximately 70% of employers in Ireland who believe that it would be too difficult to hire a Neurodivergent individual. Which may help to explain why 80% of Autistic adults are either un or under-employed.

Here, at TSK, we can help to change these statistics by offering a number of different services.

Corporate Talks

Lunch and Learns offer your organisation to engage management, HR or your entire team to learn about Neurodiversity within your organisation. By providing talks on Neurodiversity generally, or being more specific in the training you require, for example, talks on Autism, ADHD and other neurodivergent conditions

Team Training

Training in neurodiversity inclusivity and acceptance. How can we become a more inclusive workplace and foster best practice when employing and retaining a neurodiverse workforce?  We can offer talks, specialised workshops, half day and full day training options, either on-site or on-line.

Consultancy

Would you like to know how easy it can be to hire a neurodivergent individual? Did you know, by not hiring for talent, you may be missing out on a cohort of highly skilled and talented employees that will not only increase your profitability, but also your staff retention?

Autism Training for O’Connor’s Seafood Restaurant and Cafe

We have also provided Autism Training for O’Connor’s Seafood Restaurant and Cafe in Bantry, Co. Cork to prepare their restaurant for reopening following refurbishment. During their renovations, they have prepared a social story, autism friendly menu’s and a sensory area. As part of their process, they engaged is in training for the team to ensure the team were ready for adults and children who struggle with the neurotypical environment.

Bespoke training for Reach Deaf Services

During the pandemic, we provided bespoke training for Reach Deaf Services. The team in REACH were struggling with a new client, who had found himself in residential services. The gentleman was deaf, non-speaking and autistic. He had also suffered a huge trauma.

We engaged REACH in training for the team, and provided recommendations going forward. This was two full days training where we looked at Autism, Sensory Processing Difficulties, and Trauma, before we worked together for a collaborative approach to put a plan in place.

We were called back six months later to train a core team which had been put in place following our recommendations.  The training has been a huge success to date and the gentleman is in a much better place, both emotionally and mentally.
