Talks

Since 2021, I have been giving presentations on neurodiversity at work, in English and Dutch.

Neurodiversity in the workplace: discover the value of diverse brains

Discover how to grow your talent pool, improve team dynamics, increase productivity and create a supportive environment for all employees to reach their full potential.

For managers, HR professionals and teams of companies who want to gain more insights into neurodiversity and the positive impact of neurodivergent employees on the organisation.

Neurodiversity in the workplace” is presented in English and Dutch together with Daphné De Troch. It has previously featured at (among others) Proximus, City of Ostend, Voka, University College Ghent, and during “Inspiration day workplace learning” at Artevelde University of Applied Sciences.

ADHDeveloper – Thriving as a neurodivergent software engineer

Telling a personal tale of being a software engineer with ADHD, what I learned as a tech team lead, and how I could apply the same techniques in my personal life.

With this 45-minute keynote, people become more aware of their neurodivergent colleagues, how they may have personal struggles, and what can help them and the team overcome this. Introducing five guiding principles for successful software teams, I share practices and tips that help both teams as well as neurodivergent team members to become more resilient and productive.

Available in English and Dutch, online or on location. It has featured at various meet-ups and a few international conferences on agile software development (XP 2023 in Amsterdam and XP Days Benelux 2022 in Luxembourg).
