In a new episode of Don’t Be a Jerk, our founder David Flink shares what nearly three decades of working alongside neurodivergent young people has taught him about leadership, belonging, and building environments where people thrive.

From the difference between expectations and agreements to why “bad employees” are often unsupported employees, this conversation challenges the way schools and workplaces think about performance, accountability, and psychological safety.

At The Neurodiversity Alliance, we believe neurodivergent students are not problems to solve. They are leaders, innovators, and community builders. This episode is a powerful reminder that when we shift our systems, not our students, everything changes.

Listen now and join us in creating spaces where neurodivergent young people are understood, valued, and set up to succeed.
