The "Recruitment" Trap

We are trapped in a cycle of recruiting people who look like us and think like us. We value exam results that simply prove a candidate can memorise facts—a skill the AI revolution has rendered obsolete.

What we need now are problem solvers, pattern seekers, and visualisers that complement AI. We need a neurodiverse workforce, not a uniform one.

The "Diverse" Solution

Cognitive Diversity is the engine of high performance. It isn't about sympathy; it's about strategy.

"I don't just speak about diversity. I am a Finance Leader who has lived it. I speak the language of the Boardroom: Risk, Reward, and ROI."
